The Community Art House provides a creative work space for our highly talented friends living in Community First! Village to produce and sell some of the best works of art in Austin.
The Art House program offers a safe and supportive environment that fosters healing and creative expression for our formerly homeless neighbors. Mobile Loaves & Fishes partners with Community First! artists to assist with the promotion and sale of their artwork, supporting their efforts to earn a dignified income through the use of their unique, God-given talents.
Made in Community
Fine Art
Working out of the fine art room, our neighbor artists produce stunning original pieces on canvas and paper that are sold in our Community Market. Some of those pieces are digitized and sold as prints, notecards, ornaments and more in our online shop.
Jewelry
Our jewelry assembly room offers neighbors with all skill sets and aptitudes the chance to earn a dignified income while creating beautiful, wearable works of art. Visit our Community Market to see what we have or shop online.
Ceramics
Our ceramics room offers neighbor artists the opportunity to work independently on their own pieces or create items from templates like key dishes, ornaments and paperweights. Ceramics can be purchased in our Community Market or also online.
Some of our community-made products for sale in the Community Market.

Your purchase of our products directly supports the mission of Mobile Loaves & Fishes and the neighbors living in Community First! Village.
Our Community Market features an eclectic array of unique art and handcrafted gifts made in Community First! Village, as well as branded shirts, hats, bags, mugs and more – what we call “Goodness Gear.”
Our Online Shop is full of the most popular items made in community.
