As part of the Fort Worth Art Dealers Association’s annual Fall Gallery Night festivities — see more about that in this week’s center spread — the Sid Richardson Museum (309 Main St, Fort Worth, 817-332-6554) is hosting a new Artist in Process event. From 1pm to 3pm, local artist Caya Crum will paint live in the museum’s gallery. Known for her playful neon-hued takes on Western themes, Caya’s work brings a fresh, Pop Art twist to cowboy culture. Think UFOs, smoking cowgirls, and desert dreamscapes. Her live painting will unfold against the backdrop of The Cinematic West: The Art That Made the Movies exhibit, which explores how Western artists like Frederic Remington and Charles Russell helped shape the golden age of Hollywood’s Westerns. There is no cost to attend.
