Greetings from the Regenerative Aesthetics Playground presents fiber sculptures and installation
by artist Tina Linville. Working with materials that carry visible histories, from found fragments
to handcrafted textiles and objects shaped by prior use, Linville constructs a dynamic ecology of
renewal where play guides the act of making and creativity becomes a generative force. The
exhibition invites viewers to consider how processes of reuse, improvisation, and material
transformation can model hopeful, regenerative ways of engaging with the world.
There will be an artist lecture held on January 21, 2026 at 1 PM. Location TBA.

The gallery within the Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center serves and enriches the students of the Department of Visual Arts & Design and the communities of Stephenville and North Central Texas through exhibitions and special events. We present curatorial programs that challenge and promote discourse while highlighting regional as well as internationally-based artists.
The gallery hosts 3 or 4 shows each semester, usually opening with a reception and often with a lecture and/or workshop by the featured artist(s). These events are free to the public, more details can be found on the Fine Arts Calendar. Senior exhibitions are a feature of the schedule in fall and spring semesters. These shows are required of all graduating Visual Arts and Design majors to display a body of work or a research project chosen by the student. The Annual Juried Student Exhibition takes place every spring. This exhibition is open to all students and is juried by curators and artists from the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
The Annual Rio Brazos Art Exhibition
Every spring, the Department of Visual Arts & Design hosts the Rio Brazos Art Exhibition, at the Langdon Cultural Center in Granbury, TX. This long-running national exhibition attracts jurors and artists from across the globe. All proceeds from the exhibition go to scholarships for students in the Department of Visual Arts & Design.
