New project launched!

Beginning in January 2008 the University of Houston Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts, in partnership with the UH School of Art and Creative Writing Program, will host the Center for Land Use Interpretation (CLUI) for a residency that focuses on the Buffalo Bayou, the Houston Ship Channel, and their environs.

Students from courses in the UH School of Art, Creative Writing Program and College of Architecture will be working with the Center for Land Use Interpretation (CLUI) to visit, examine and interpret the regional landscape. This blog represents the development of their projects and discussions.
