Saturday mornings in Lewisville take on a new hue, as Wayne Ferguson Plaza becomes a canvas for live artists showcasing their craft. From 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., local creatives roll up their sleeves giving the public a chance to witness art in the making, with everything from painting to spoken word, thanks to the Art Pop-ups in the Plaza initiative.
As reported by the City of Lewisville, Texas, the lineup features intriguing artists with Kalika Antano kicking off the event on June 1. Antano, a Visual Art League of Lewisville member, infuses her global travels into her art, with a keen eye for landscapes and abstracts that transform mundane scenarios with her nuanced play of light and shadow, art seekers can expect a sensorial treat.
The venue, Wayne Ferguson Plaza, brings its charm to the show. This award-winning urban park weaves nature and architecture together with its sweeping design, equipped with an elevated stage and interactive splash pad—nestled between Lewisville City Hall and the Grand Theater, making it a bustling hub for culture and community engagement.
Future acts slated to grace the plaza include Nancy Tyler on June 8 and Georgia Neame on June 15, each bringing their unique flair to the diverse palette of performances. For those worried about Texas's tempestuous weather marring their artistic outing, updates and cancellations are announced on the Wayne Ferguson Plaza Facebook page or the Visual Art Leagues of Lewisville Facebook page, so art aficionados can plan their visit accordingly.
