Read the full review here. 5-9 p.m., 1123 S. Fawcett, 253.627.0426
FULCRUM GALLERY: Cell phone towers are everywhere. They're a manifestation of the world we've created, and the evolution of human interaction. You can look at this as good or bad.

"As the cell phone has integrated into my life it has led to a depersonalization of my relationships through convenience. The towers represent my connection the world," says Johnson. 6-9 p.m., 1308 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, 253.250.0520

ROBERT DANIEL GALLERY: Former Two Vaults Gallery owner Paula Tutmarc-Johnson has gathered Ethan Jack Harrington's hot soft landscapes, Karl Krogstads inimitable "French Funk" architecture, street scenes and figures, and J.
