Like the tree falling in the forest with no one there to hear it, an exhibit at the Walkers’ Gallery has been on the walls of the San Marcos Activity Center since early December — with no one there to see it.
This exhibit, dedicated to the art of printmaking, had been planned for more than a year. Two renowned Austin printmaking studio/galleries had agreed to loan work, a virtual workshop was held for area artists (plus two from Seattle) — and local artists were excited to display their work. On Dec. 5, with optimism and social distancing, the artworks were collected, hung, spaced and labeled…and then the first of three consecutive shutdowns occurred.
However, finally, Marching forward, the activity center has reopened — in masks and safe capacity — and everyone is invited to come to see the exhibit.
