FLOODING DAMAGES CYPRESS CREEK CULTURAL
DISTRICT CREEKFEST CANCELED FOR 2017
Along with so many neighbors on Cypress Creek, the Cypress Creek
Cultural District sustained serious damage from Hurricane Harvey. As a
result, CreekFest has been canceled for 2017 but plans are to return in
full force next year. The Centrum and Cypress Creek Christian Church and
Community Center, the Barbara Bush Library, the Pearl Fincher Museum
of Fine Arts and the Greenway trails experienced costly damages. All are
working hard to become operative as soon as possible and need the
support of the Northwest Community to aid the effort to do so.
A sincere thank you goes to the major sponsors of CreekFest who have
now directed their sponsorships toward flood relief for the Cultural
District’s non-profit organizations. Those sponsors include the Cypress
Creek Cultural District, Resource One Credit Union, Fidelity Investments
and Power Home Remodeling Group.

Insurance covers only a portion of the costs to repair each of these
organizations, so contributions from the community are needed and
deeply appreciated. Contributions may be made by visiting https://
paypal.me/cypresscreekcultural. Please include a note indicating that
your gift is for Harvey relief. All donations will be distributed between nonprofit
organizations in the Cypress Creek Cultural District, unless directed
by the donor to a specific entity. One hundred percent of your donations
will go directly to the cultural district organizations for flood relief.
Cypress Creek FACE is working to relocate concerts and educational
services. The Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts hopes to re-open later this
fall. The reopening of the Barbara Bush Harris County Library is yet to be
determined.
The Cypress Creek Cultural District is a community-driven, civic and
cultural complex dedicated to meeting the cultural, recreational and
educational needs of all people in the Northwest Houston Cypress
Creek Community. For updates and information, please visit www.
