The special exhibition will run from Oct. 4 to 26 and will feature the work of both resident artists and emerging Dallas area artists, including several from the Park Cities.

The show’s theme is the power of personal narrative in owning and writing an individual’s own story. Artists responded to a prompt by Brené Brown: “When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write the ending.”

Works on display will include Park Cities artist Jenny Grumbles’ collage portrait of global pop icon Taylor Swift. The portrait, titled “Art by a Thousand Cuts,” is made entirely from cereal box pieces.

The show will also feature gallery director and artist Anna Curnes’ piece, “Director’s Cut,” a glass strings installation made from hand cut and fused glass.
