Meet The Team

Roni

Hola! I am Roni, an experienced artist, mother and CEO of HTX ART, a creative enterprise that provides access to art in Houston’s underserved communities.

I am widely known for Houston's Art Bus. I transformed an old school bus into a mobile art studio that provides creative opportunities though out Harris County. I was honored to receive a grant from HEB, Texas singer-songwriter Kelly Clarkson and comedian Amy Poehler.

As an accomplished artist with more than 10 years of experience in teaching and painting, I'm responsible for painting several large murals in Houston. It is my mission to provide a multigenerational art experience for communities across Houston. Through this mission I have established; Art in the HEART, a community art center in the Eastex Jensen community. To foster creativity and provide resources to promote mental health, personal growth and quality time for families and seniors.

Norberto Sr.

Hello! I am Norberto. As a father to 4 wonderful boys, I know the value time and effort have on the lives of our future generations. I push to educate, inform and empower my sons to be leaders and listeners.

With 10+ years experience in Information Technology, I seek to make technology accessible and understandable to the entire community. Especially our senior residents.

Noe

Hi! My name is Noe D. Moreno. I am an avid book reader and enjoy music while I read.

I love seeing the kids proud faces when they create something. Confidence is an extremely important thing to have. Making art helps build up confidence and is a huge factor in a child's development.

I'm the sounding board for my parents. If they have an idea for a project or event, we'll talk about it and plan talk logistics.

Amadeo

Hi!

I am working to learn accounting and creative writing. I enjoy the community growing because of our efforts.

I like to research the best ways we can use our resources to help our mission.

Norb Jr.

Hello!

My name is Norberto Moreno.

I’m 14 years old and the 3rd born out of my 4 brothers.I love to spend time outside and go on bike rides.

Something magical to me is the look of shock and excitement on the children’s faces when they enter the Art Bus.

I’ve been picking up the role of marketing, commonly asked for help or my thoughts on a design or post. It has been a lot of fun to bounce ideas off my mom and help create better designs and promotional material.

Josh
