Current Episode
- Out of the Dust
- Martin Gates hopes to capture the spiritual essence of nature itself in his sculptures. He carves in many varieties of material and he prides himself on his use of mostly antique hand-carving tools. Martin’s carvings have a unique style of abstract shapes and forms and often capture motion with his use of line and mass.
- Color My World
- Mike Segal’s paintings take you to another place: from a Florida fishing village to somewhere in the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina. Mike hopes that when you look at his art you feel good because they are happy, brilliant-colored paintings that take you out of your reality for as long as you wish to view them.
- J-Fest
- The Juneteenth Festival and Juried Art Show was created to celebrate June 19, 1865, the day the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas were freed. This event also celebrates June as Black Music Month. Both of these major events fall under the mission of the non-profit Cotton Club Museum and Cultural Center which serves to help the community preserve African American history and culture through fine, folk and performing arts.
- Iron Man
- James Oleson, Jr. creates two-dimensional and three-dimensional art pieces. His specialty is the manipulation of metal using heat, along with other bending techniques. His sculptures are created from purchased or scrap metals and rundown parts of machinery. James enjoys recycling people's garbage and turning them into magnificent creations that will reach out and grab you.
