Texaco Country Showdown winner Crystal Yates and her husband moved to the DFW area to follow their vision and passion for country music. When they arrived, however, they didn’t know anyone. They showed up to an Art House Dallas event and were greeted with care, and invited into the community.

Being a part of the Art House community has encouraged Crystal to pursue her calling. The first album she ever created was funded by a patron and with the support from both the creative community and donors, Crystal has gone on to create multiple albums.

Along with Crystal, we thank you for being a part of something that is bigger than all of us. If you believe in the Art House Dallas vision to cultivate creativity for the common good or have benefited from the community, please consider making a tax-deductible donation for North Texas Giving Day this Thursday, September 20th. Scheduled donations are currently open and can be made here.
