Fri 3/6 @ 5-9PM

There’s a lot happening this month at Walk All Over Waterloo as the weather starts to warm up — it’s predicted to be in the low 60s — and snow disappears.

It’s the last opportunity to see printmaker Michael Gill’s show Momentum Like Diamonds at William Busta Projects. Gill’s specialty is woodcut and letterpress prints, which he’s assembled into a series of artist books, as well as individual prints. They reflect his interest in things such as bicycling, the urban landscape, childhood activities and cats.  In Momentum Like Diamonds, he leans into his well-known passion for cycling in a show that features both woodcut/letterpress prints and a limited-edition artist book that explore some of his peak experiences as a cyclist.

And since Gill was also one of the founders of CAN Journal — the quarterly magazine, weekly email newsletter and website covering northeast Ohio’s visual arts — of which he’s now publisher-editor, the reception will also be the launch party for the spring issue CAN Journal. All are welcome to stop in and pick up a copy of the spring issue of the free magazine.

Then be sure to stop down the hall from Busta Projects to check out a display of Rick Rollenhagen’s stone carving at the Maria Neil Art Project.

Head across the street to Waterloo Arts for the opening of the annual Blacklight Dayglo show. The 2026 show is called PSYCHEDELIC!, and uses Dayglo paint to explore themes around 1960s and 70s rock & roll visual culture, and how many bands in that era incorporated blacklight paints into the posters. Nearly 50 artists contributed to the exhibit which will fill the gallery with this retro vibe. The show will be on view through March 29. Also on view at the art walk will be Afterglo 2026, a walk-through black light installation created by another 30 artists.

And be sure to stop in Praxis Gallery where vocalist Sadhu and trumpet player Theresa May will play some free music from 6-8pm.
