Get ready, Houston — Second Sunday #1 for 2026 has a date and it’s doing the tango with the calendar: February 22nd.

J. Thomas and Hideki Synth are back to curate the vibes: a playful, electric mash-up for our local art, photography, and modeling communities.

Who should join

• Photographers hunting for fresh faces and frames

• Models ready to build portfolios and try new looks

• Artists and creatives wanting to collaborate, network, or just soak in inspiration

What to expect

• Laid-back, professional shoots with a community-first spirit

• Quick-change setups, mini-sets, and experimental lighting

• Friendly, constructive feedback and chances to connect with peers

• A quirky atmosphere where creativity is encouraged and coffee is optional but recommended

• Space is limited — sign up early to secure a spot.

• Bring your kit, your ideas, and your best “let’s make something cool” energy.

• Specifics on location, schedule, and any other details will be sent to registrants around February 1st.
