This is one extensive group exhibit focused on repetition and daily practice, for which each of the participating artists has created a new work or carefully chosen a work from the past. And we mean, these are some of the most fascinating artists who ever breathed our city's air – Steve Brudniak, Malou Flato, Denise M. Fulton, Jan Heaton, David Leonard, Randall Reid, Caprice Pierucci, John Sager, Chun Hui Pak, and many more. So, even if visiting galleries isn't part of your, ah, daily practice, you'll be well rewarded by checking out Davis Gallery's array of visual creations.
The elegant Eastside gallery of three-dimensional creation – those folks responsible for the public beauty of that Sculpture Garden on Springdale – present GD Wright's first solo show in Austin, featuring works composed of metal structures, concrete castings, and blown glass with mirrored surfaces. Note: This show exists partly via sponsorship from UT-Arlington to produce more than 200 pounds of blown glass.
You like to eat well. You like to drink well. You like to do both, well, then know that Cover 3 Executive Chef Justin Manzi is creating an extraordinary five-course meal at the Downtown location this night, and each course is paired with wines from Simi Winery.
This is a solo exhibition by Leslie Kell, about whose digitally manipulated photography we've fairly raved, because she does it so well and frequently handcrafts and embellishes the frames she displays it in. For this show, in addition to her typical graphic deconstructions of nature and so on, Kell's created at least one work using images of the Ney's own sculptural inventory. It's never a poor idea to visit this Hyde Park gem of a venue, and right now it's an even better idea than usual.

Start at the Galleria’s Twin Liquors outpost to pick up your Wine Walk map, which will also serve as a ticket for each wine-filled stop. There will be plenty of shopportunities as you go, of course – duh, it’s the Galleria! – and this clever jaunt’s organized so that the last stop is a restaurant, so you can hang out and end your oenophilic evening with dinner.
This tasty pop-up event transports you back to 1985 (more or less) with its Stranger Things theme, slinging shakes and cakes decked out in sailor gear from the retro creeptastic show. Go ahead, try the signature all-black Upside Down milkshake that’s topped with an edible Demogorgon. Oh, let’s say that again, shall we? “An edible Demogorgon.” Mmmmmmmm, baby!
