About the Exhibition: Humble, ordinary items can become sacred artifacts when they are imbued with personal sentiment. This art exhibition seeks to explore the objects that encapsulate a specific moment in our personal stories, and our attachment to those memories. 9th Street Studios assembled a panel of jurors from a variety of disciplines, who were not exclusively tied to the Wichita Falls Art Scene. The Call to Artists attracted submissions from all over the state of Texas, Oklahoma and as far away as Canada. The result is a bright and diverse selection of art that evokes emotion that only mementos can.
MEMENTO will be on exhibit from September 18th-November 30th. Normal gallery hours are 10-5:00 Monday-Friday(please call ahead for availability. 940-613-4797)
