Generous Art, LLC is the creative business of Jennifer Chenoweth, an artist. If you happen to know Jennifer, you would know that she is a connector and a doer. GenerousArt.org started with conversations with friends about creativity and business, about how valuable community is to our lives, how to give back for all we are grateful for, about the lack of transparency in the art business, and about how artists get supported and their work valued.
In an effort to remove all barriers to the enjoyment of classical music, deepen the listener’s understanding, and to cultivate an appreciation for its value in modern society as a relevant, living art form, REVEL‘s mission is to bring an exceptional classical music experience to the community that is devoid of all pretension, yet exhibits the highest artistic caliber.
Austin Child Guidance Center aims to improve the mental health of children and their families through early intervention, diagnosis, and treatment to help them develop the emotional skills for meeting life’s challenges.
