The Edge 166 Artspace @ Theatre 166 is sadly no more, mainly because its sponsoring organization Theatre 166 is closing for good as of June 1 for financial reasons. It is sad to realize that a beautiful facility with state-of-the-art black box technology can't continue asit has, largely because of soaring commercial rents in the DFW area. But that's the world we live in. We want to thank everyone who contributed to our 15-month run of exciting events, including gallery exhibitions and performance art. But we are hoping to redistribute the spirit and the cameraderie of the space to different smaller groups with whom we are connected and are bringing the visual arts to life. The success of the "Diamonds Beneath the Coal" art showing (we might call it a salon) last night in Grapevine, made up largely of people who met through The Edge 166, was a great start. In the meantime, keep in touch with us through the Global Arts & Ideas Network, which along with Crosspointe Church helped bring The Edge 166 into existence in early 2015.
