In Loving Memory of ANN O’CONNOR WILLIAMS HARITHAS, owner and Co-Founder of the Art Car Museum.Ann’s vision has brought art and Art Cars with inclusivity to the Houston community and beyond.To quote Ann, ”It is my deepest wish to see the Art Car movement flourish, because it brings the drama of art beyond the walls of the museum to people of all walks of life."She was a mentor and showed support and encouragement to not only the artists at the museum, but also her staff.Her sparkle and “joie de vivre”, will be missed, but not forgotten.May we all live on a little more like Ann.It is an honor to have worked with and for Ann, and to keep her vision vibrant and alive!
