FORT WORKS ART CELEBRATES 10 YEARS

Somehow against logic, economic, weather, construction, closed streets, a global pandemic, and the slow erosion that tales out most independent galleries, Fort Works Art is ten years old. If you’ve been with us since the very beginning or you just started following along, thank you. Whether you walked through our doors in year one or discovered us last week, your support, curiosity, and belief in what we do have made this milestone possible. We are deeply grateful to every artist, collector, neighbor, and friend who has been part of this story.

upcoming reception

AMY TWOMEY: FRAGMENTS OF MEMORY

ON VIEW: JANUARY 23 - MARCH 21, 2026
CLOSING RECEPTION: MARCH 8, 3-6 PM

While Twomey is innately Texan and unmistakably Western in spirit, her works moves beyond expected regional tropes. With works recalling artists like Kyle Steed and Jeremy Joel, the intimacy of her symbols captures fragments of life that might be lost at scale, creating a visual vocabulary rooted in memory and experience.

Fragments of Memory reflects Fort Worth itself: the rhythms, quiet beauty, and lived experience of the city. By painting her story, Twomey paints ours as well.

FORT WORKS ART PRESENTS: TEN

THREE EXHIBITIONS. ONE IMMERSIVE INSTALLATION. ALL ON ONE NIGHT.

ON VIEW: MARCH 28 - MAY 2
OPENING RECEPTION: MARCH 28, FROM 6-8 PM

On Friday, March 28, Fort Works Art marks its 10-year anniversary with the most ambitious day in the gallery’s history. Coinciding with Fort Worth’s citywide Gallery Night, the anniversary will transform 2100 Montgomery Street into a multi-floor, multi-sensory cultural indoor/outdoor hub from 12PM to 9 PM. What began a decade a go as a small, risk-taking gallery, opened before Dickies Arena reshaped the district, has grown into one of Fort Worth’s most vital creative incubators. For its anniversary, Fort Works Art presents three simultaneous exhibitions, an immersive interactive installation, music, performances, and a community block party, making it the only venue in the city offering this level of depth, scale, and experience in a single stop.
