Fort Worth, Texas (Thursday, January 20, 2022) Arts Fort Worth, formerly the Fort Worth Community Arts Center, invites you to start the new year with seven exciting new exhibitions in the newly renovated galleries. Damage from 2021’s winter storm gave Arts Fort Worth the opportunity to renovate and expand three of the galleries into one larger gallery. The gallery expansion creates an open and inviting space that will continue to house emerging and established artists, as well as events and workshops.
With the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo right next door, Arts Fort Worth is featuring four exhibitions with a Western theme but bringing exciting and new perspectives to the genre. Ma, The Gravities, and Art Room’s Both Sides Now close Saturday, January 29. The Inexorable & Enigmatic Western Horizon, A Quest Into the West, Traces, and Art Tooth’s The Next Chapter: Brenda Ciardiello and Fernando Rojas are on view through Saturday, February 26.
