Benefit in Memory of Thomas Davidson

"Dance Woman" by Thomas Gregory

I was deeply saddened to read this story over the weekend, but it wasn't until today that I made the connection to the Jacket Gallery, owned by one of our co-owners. From Quick:
Tragedy at the Jacket Gallery in Expo Park

Thomas [Davidson], a local metal sculptor, opened a show at the new Jacket Gallery last Thursday. On his way home, he died in a motorcycle accident. He hit one of the guardrails off I-30, where it merges onto Central. Police didn't find his body until four hours later. (Detailed Fox story about the accident here.) He also had two kids.

The Jacket Gallery -- which is owned by Sheldon Hubbard, the co-owner of the Amsterdam Bar -- is having a special show on Thursday night from 6 to 10 p.m. Proceeds from any works sold will benefit Gregory's children's college funds.
Please turn out and help support this event. Benefit at the Jacket Gallery 6-10 PM, Thursday April 17th.

More photos from the Jacket Gallery

Just a few more photos from the show with Gaedge Erikssen and Carter Herrington at The Jacket Gallery. This show ended April 13th, but it was such a fun night that its worth revisiting with a few pictures. Click on the photos to enlarge them.

Jacket Gallery is located at 827 Exposition Avenue. Expo Park Art Night is every second Thursday evening from 6 - 10 PM at all the different arts venues in Exposition Park in Dallas, Texas, which means the next one is next week!

After enjoying some art, be sure to stop by The Amsterdam Bar for a drink!

Jacket Gallery: Expo Park Art Night

There's a great little gallery in Expo Park called "Jacket Gallery." The gallery is rarely open and the best time to catch one of its shows is during the month Expo Park Art Night, which is the second Thursday evening every month. Here are a few photos I snapped during last month's show.
