500X holds this uncurated open show every summer, and anything is fair game. Hot and Sweaty is a salon-style, non-juried exhibition of works of any medium made by Texas Artists. If we have the space for it, we will hang it! Proceeds from Hot and Sweaty goes to continuation exhibition opportunities and events that support local and emerging artists in the state of Texas.

This is a first come, first serve basis. Arrive early!
