'Marilyn Henrion: The Ninth Decade' solo exhibit

Marilyn Henrion: The Ninth Decade solo exhibit honoring the enduring creativity and vision of an artist who continues to innovate and explore new boundaries opens for an extended run Saturday, July 18, at Lewisville Grand Theater, 100 N. Charles Street.

The Ninth Decade features selected works created by Henrion during her nineties. Henrion relocated to Texas in 2022 at the age of 90 and maintains a prolific output that combines photography, digital technology, and the traditional craft of hand quilting.

Her work reflects a deep engagement with place, merging the past and present as well as the man-made and natural worlds. Henrion describes her art as expressing "the eternal yearning for immortality," capturing the human imprint etched into the landscape.

An opening reception will be held in the Art Gallery on Saturday, July 18, 7-9 p.m.

Henrion also will give an Artist's Talk on Saturday, July 25, from 1-3 p.m., offering insights into her creative process and themes presented in this late chapter of her work. As an exciting bonus, attendees also will learn about the documentary film about Henrion and her late husband (fellow artist Edward Henrion) that is currently in production.

The exhibition runs July 18-August 15. The Art Gallery at the Lewisville Grand Theater is open to the public Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., and during public events. Exhibitions are always free to visit.

The Grand is Lewisville's home for the arts. It presents a variety of regional and national touring performers, art exhibits, and classes, while also giving the many arts groups in the greater Lewisville area a facility to perform and display their works. Its multiple performance spaces play host to a variety of events, including live music, theater, dance performances, comedy shows, and more. The center features the 294-seat Huffines Performance Hall, black box theater, recital hall, art gallery, and courtyard.

Free public parking is available along Main and Church streets, or at Lewisville City Hall across Church Street from the center.
