After a Snow Postponement, Walk All over Waterloo Returns on Friday

Work by Kate Snow

Fri 3/4 @ 5-9PM

If you didn’t get a chance to “Walk All over Waterloo” in February — when a winter storm blew away its first Friday and they hastily invited people to stop by the following Sunday afternoon instead — head over to the Waterloo Arts District this month, where you’ll still be able to see most of the shows that were up last month.

For instance, at Deep Dive Art Projects from 5-8pm, you’ll be able to catch the work of Cleveland-based painter/printmaker Kate Snow in its final days. Snow has been keeping a visual journal, based on daily drawings that her artist statement describes as “both meditations and endurance exercises.” They use simple, repetitive movements that use lines, repeated shapes and a limited color palette, through which she aims to “explore the uneasy relationship between chaos and control and “seek balance within complexity and questions how we connect, rely on, and betray ourselves and each other.”

Also still on view is Abby Cipar’s Sweet to One Another at Praxis Fiber Arts’ gallery featuring soft-sculpture forms by the Akron artist, based on their experience growing up queer.

Photocentric will be opening a new show by its proprietor, Michael Loderstedt, called Why We Fished. It’s not so much a show of works on the wall as it is an experience in continual progress. He’ll turn the gallery into a “maker space” where you can watch a stringed instrument being built, read or listen to a poem, or watch a work of art being created and/or installed.  The show, which runs through March 26, will be a little different each week.

And Waterloo Arts will be opening a new show titled Among, featuring work by Hannah Bates constructed from both natural and man-made materials she found along the Cuyahoga River and Lake Erie.
