SONGS of the OCOTILLO is a new collaborative exhibit soon at MixHaus Gallery in Comfort, TX

ART ON VIEW April 10 through May 24, 2026

OPENING RECEPTION Saturday APRIL 11, 2-6:00 PM 

Texans Lucy Griffith and Darlene Marwitz collaborate in SONGS OF THE OCOTILLO, mixing poetic and visual art that pays homage to the iconic and beloved plant of the Chihuahuan Desert. Griffith’s words conjure the spirit and resilience of the waving ocotillos that spring to life with a few drops of rain.  Marwitz’s landscapes reflect the solitude, open spaces, distant views, and hardy flora upon the scrabble of the desert floor in Far West Texas.

SONGS OF THE OCOTILLO poetry books and a commemorative broadside poster are available in Comfort at MIXHAUSGALLERY.com.
