Exhibitions at the Buddy Holly Center: Fine Arts Gallery
Rhymes and Rhythms in Black and White: West Texas Music through the Lens of Victor Mosqueda will be on display through March 24, 2019 in the Fine Arts Gallery. This collection of 52 black and white images celebrates the broad range of musicians who define the West Texas music scene. Mosqueda’s exhibit at the Buddy Holly Center is featured as part of the commemoration of the Center’s 20th anniversary.
Buddy Holly: Life, Legend, Legacy is open in the North Gallery of the Fine Arts Gallery through September 15th.
