Bihl Haus Arts presents “Texas TRIPtych,” an exhibition of Texas river-themed works by Elizabeth Rodriguez, that opens with a reception from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 5 at the gallery. The exhibition, which is in conjunction with Contemporary Art Month and Women’s History Month, continues through April 2.

The idea for Rodriguez’s exhibition is from the unexpected result of the artist’s desire to escape the Texas heat by spending a day at the river.

What is Stone in Stream?

Stone is Stream is a collective of writers, artists and activists committed to the environment and our place within it. Founded by Mobi Warren and Jim LaVilla-Havelin after a workshop by Kathleen Dean Moore – who talked about the way the individual can make a difference in protecting the environment, like a stone in the stream, which just being there diverts the water, even if only a little.
