    Big Medium: There Are Black People In Nebraska?!

    Right there in the middle of Canopy's anchoring gallery, Adrian Armstrong invites us to see ourselves in these figures and realize that blackness is found blooming in every crevice. This is the first installment of Armstrong's series of multimedia shows exploring the black community in Omaha, Nebraska, and the artist’s first step into a world-building concept.

    Cloud Tree: Lonesome Ladybird

    "Pairing the striking and unique hand stitched work of emerging artist Jane Reichle of Lady Bird Studio with the artful chain stitch and bespoke western wear of Fort Lonesome was an idea I had been considering for a while," Cloud Tree honcho Brian David Johnson tells us. "When friend of Cloud Tree, Elizabeth Chapin, voiced the same, it felt like the universe confirming the way forward. Join us at the opening reception for a night of collaborative portraiture, wallpaper masters, drugstore cowgirls, and more that celebrates the art of the stitch coming from two Austin originals who help us remember just how special this ever-changing city still is."

    Laguna Gloria

    This local treasure of a venue, run by those Contemporary Austin folks who also bring us the Jones Center shows Downtown, is all about the outdoors – which is perfect for these trickily navigated times of ours, n'est-ce pas? Recommended: Stop by and breathe in the air, enjoy the lawns and gardens and the many examples of world-class sculpture arrayed across the property, and (as Frankie used to say) r-e-l-a-x.

    Link & Pin Gallery: Obscure Holidays

    This delightful new show is the result of an annual exchange portfolio in which the members and friends of Slugfest Printmaking Workshop create a print based on a theme – Obscure Holidays, this year, as suggested by Carolyn Porter – and each artist creates a specific number of prints on a specific paper size for the edition. Among those represented here: Bethany Andrée, Didier Bardon, Douglas Cushing, Jill Thrasher, Margie Simpson, Shailee Thakkar, and Tom Druecker.
    Through Dec. 10. Free.
