Mark your calendar. This is the night where Houston shows up, shows out, and stands united.

The 2025 Night of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion is more than a celebration. It’s a bold, inspiring tribute to the visionaries who are driving meaningful change in our city. These are the leaders breaking down barriers, lifting others as they rise, and building a more inclusive future — not just for some, but for all.

Get ready for a powerful evening filled with storytelling, community, and connection. We’re honoring the trailblazers whose impact reaches beyond their industries and into the hearts of the people they uplift.

Bold. Brilliant. Unapologetically transformative.

Art With Purpose
