A project of the Adoption Coalition of Texas and CASA of Travis County, The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is both an art exhibit and community education effort. The Heart Gallery features professional photographs by renowned documentary and portrait photographers of children in foster care who are waiting to be adopted.
Using the power of photography, The Heart Gallery offers a window into their worlds and raises awareness of the opportunity to adopt children from foster care.
The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is made possible by the time and talent of more than 55 renowned Central Texas photographers who volunteered hundreds of hours to photograph nearly 100 children.
The Heart Gallery of Central Texas premiered during a gala event at SPAZIO Interiors by Lytle Pressley on August 25, 2005 in Austin. The Heart Gallery of Central Texas is free and open to the public. It will travel to locations throughout Central Texas.
Perhaps one of the children featured in this exhibit is the child you have been waiting for. To view the photographs of several of these children, please visit The Heart Gallery website.
You can also search the Texas Adoption Resource Exchange (TARE) to see the children who are currently waiting to be adopted throughout the state.
