The “Stories That Shape Us” Exhibition is a display and celebration of visual art pieces created by artists of all ages, ranging from kindergartners to senior citizens. The collection allows each artist to share the experiences and people that prompted a change in their life or were fundamental to the person they have become. By offering a space for these artists to tell their stories, we hope to promote a sense of encouragement and inspiration among people of all ages and backgrounds.

Annual Juried Student Exhibition Reception

Thursday Feb 12 | 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

The Art Galleries at TCU are pleased to present the Annual Juried Student Exhibition featuring a selection of artworks created by current Texas Christian University students. The exhibition will be selected by juror Tessa Granowski. The show will run February 12-18 at Moudy Gallery.

All current TCU students are eligible to submit artwork in any media to the Annual Juried Student Exhibition.

There are multiple awards for this year’s Juried Student Exhibition:
• Best in Show: $300 prize
• Societé Anonyme: $200 prize
• School of Art Award: $150 prize
• Alumni Award: $150 prize

JUROR
Tessa Granowski (b. Waco, TX) was raised in Dallas where she recently founded Nature of Things, an art-forward exhibition space located in the city’s Turtle Creek neighborhood—a stone’s throw from her childhood home. She enjoys fitting too much into her schedule on a regular basis and the pursuit of Texas cultural history, which she actively incorporates into the gallery’s otherwise emerging artist program. Previously, Granowski co-owned Brackett Creek Exhibitions, which operated spaces in Bozeman, Montana and New York from 2020-2024.

Moudy Gallery is located in the Moudy North Building, 2805 S. University Drive, Fort Worth, 76129. Gallery hours are Monday to Friday, 11am – 4pm, Saturday, 1 – 4pm, and by appointment. Admission is free and all are welcome. For more information, please call 817-257-2588 or email theartgalleries@tcu.edu.

Marcy Davis: Understory

Friday Feb 27 | 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

The Art Galleries at TCU are pleased to present Understory, featuring the thesis work of MFA Candidate Marcy Davis. Understory will be on view at Moudy Gallery February 25 – March 3 with an opening reception on Friday, February 27, 6-8 pm.

Understory examines how a body is never just a body. It is a structure held by skin, pressed against walls, sinking into the weight of land—a terrain, restless and alive with invisible life. At these intersections, edges collapse: flesh becomes landscape and architecture breathes like a body. This unfolds into an unsettled in-between where body and structure, inside and outside, intertwine.

Marcy Davis is an artist who received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Sculpture with a minor in glass from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2022. While in graduate school, Davis has exhibited in NXT Graduate Student Cohort In The Works at Dallas Contemporary. She has been internationally and locally recognized in Artist Talk Magazine, Glasstire, Fort Worth Magazine, and her work has been shown in spaces such as UNT CoLab, The Pool Near South Side, Arts Fort Worth, Create Arlington, and Gallery 414.

Moudy Gallery is located on the TCU campus at Moudy North Building, 2805 S. University Dr, Fort Worth, TX 76129. Regular opening hours are Monday to Friday 11am – 4pm, Saturdays 1-4pm, and by appointment. Admission is free and all are welcome.
