Humble, ordinary items can become sacred artifacts when they are imbued with personal sentiment. The juried art show, “Memento: Art that Reminds Us” seeks to explore the objects that encapsulate a specific moment in our personal stories, and our attachment to those memories. 9th Street Studios assembled a panel of jurors from a variety of disciplines, who were not exclusively tied to the Wichita Falls Art Scene. The Call to Artists attracted submissions from all over the state of Texas, and as far away as Germany. The result is a bright and diverse selection of art that evokes emotion that only mementos can.
