Did you know a pro athlete during college, a successful musician when he struggled unnoticed at an open-mic or a porn star when she was a Hooters waitress? That's cool. It's also cool to see some emerging fine artists before they become jaded alcoholics or famous generations after we're all dead. And here's your chance. Craighead-Green Gallery presents the 15th Annual New Texas Talent, 2008 exhibition. The art curator for Neiman Marcus has selected a diverse body of work by 25 Texas artists so check it out as the show runs through August 30 at the Craighead-Green Gallery. Call 214-855-0779 for more information.
Tuesdays-Saturdays. Starts: Aug. 14. Continues through Aug. 30, 2008
