Friday, September 9
Today you can get gussied up for a night out and help Katrina victims in Houston at the same time. Amy Meyers is throwing Black & White, a two-year-anniversary party for her gallery Sippora benefiting the United Way Katrina Refugee Relief Fund. "I picked this fund because it was created specifically for people who fled from New Orleans and came to Houston," says Meyers. "So I'm taking money, toiletries, clothing, shoes, food -- anything that will help out the victims -- at the door. If people could just bring something, anything, that would really make a difference." Throw on your hottest, hippest black-and-white duds and head to the show's opening, which features sculptures and paintings from local artists including Harvey Bott and Earl Staley. Gawk at body-painted models, nosh on hors d'oeuvres and chill to the live music. And don't be shy about dropping cash for the art -- 10 percent of the proceeds will go to the fund. 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The exhibit "Black & White" runs through September 30. 234 West Gray. For information, call 713-520-1085 or visit www.sippora.com. Free.
