"Alan Montgomery leads us on a journey around the City of Houston and the surrounding communities to discover artists creating something so special that they are hired to perform, make, design, build or fabricate something that is seen, held or used. That person that makes “It” then is seen as an artist because what they have a talent doing is agreed to be special and desired. These are the people that Alan Montgomery sought out."
