Description
Stop in and see the latest exhibit at Five Points Museum of Contemporary Art, "Lookout: Paintings by Davey Eldrigdge" features a survey of his landscapes examining the elemental structures and rhythm of nature and inspired by fleeting moments in time captured within those landscapes.
Originally from Potsdam, New York, Eldridge studied painting and printmaking at SUNY Potsdam. He eventually moved to Houston and taught art for many years. He has been painting since his youth, and between his teachers and his own affinity for nature, found inspiration in as varied media as post-war abstract art and quilting. His approach is unique, visually mining a blend of traditional watercolor and assemblage while employing hidden or underlying geometries within his subjects. The result is ornately detailed paintings that transcend his media, ranging from representational to abstract nature-based compositions; “Lookout” is the result of Eldridge acting as both a guide and a sentinel for transient places in time and by documenting the extraordinary within them, protecting them.
Five Points Museum of Contemporary Art is located at 1201 North Moody in Victoria, TX and is open to the public 12-5 pm Wednesday through Sunday.
Admission at the museum is always free.

Footloose
Footloose
July 25-27 & July 31 - Aug. 3, 2025
Stage adaptation by Dean Pitchford and Walter Bobbie. Based on the original screenplay by Dean Pitchford. Music by Tom Snow. Lyrics by Dean Pitchford. Additional music by Eric Carmen, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Loggins, and Jim Steinman.
Footloose celebrates the exhilaration of youth, the wisdom of listening to one another, and the power of forgiveness. When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, he is not prepared for the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by a local preacher. The heartfelt story that emerges pits a father longing for the son he lost against a young man aching for the father who walked out on him.
