Ramona is a labor of love in every sense. Notes like this one remind me of my “why”.

Ramona was founded and inspired based on my own experiences as an artist mother navigating the residency world. Loving the opportunities to connect with artists, curators and communities outside my own city yet struggling to find a supportive and flexible residency model specific to mothers.

Ramona is run by myself and one intern per semester. We rely on donations and grants to support our free public programming to Houston residents which includes free artist talks, pop up exhibitions, installations and performances.

Ramona provides a live/work space for each artist, curator visits, and a stipend to help cover travel, materials and childcare.

Ramona is approaching the end of its third cycle of artists and hosting 19 artist mothers in 2.5 years, supporting both Houston based artists as well as artists and their families from around the country.

Please consider making a tax deductible donation to support our mission and the next chapter of Ramona as we look for our forever home.

Donation link in our bio.

Megan Harrison’s work bridges art and science, using both as methods of observation and inquiry. Rooted in her experience of motherhood, her practice reflects on attention, care, and the ways knowledge unfolds over time.

Here, fluid ink forms expand across the surface, contrasted by structured, geometric elements. The work considers how stability and change coexist—shaped by both material processes and lived experience.

On view as part of our current exhibition at CityCentre Houston, C/O, developed in collaboration with Ramona Residency—a Houston-based, artist-mother residency founded in 2024.

Four more days to experience the captivating large-format and highly meticulous works by Texas based artist @m.harrison.us ! Harrison’s process-intensive paintings mimic natural forms - like sediment, stone, and water - conveying a sense of timeless place and awe through meticulous surface-building. Harrison’s work is a meditation on impermanence and transformation, echoing the slow rhythms of the land and unfolding like a terrain shaped by both natural processes and lived experience – where layered textures emulate the way memories settle, blur, and resurface over time. “The Weight of Place” is on view until THIS SATURDAY, August 23!
