with a reception from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and run to November 5. Due to a scheduling conflict, the opening reception is postponed to September 24, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The exhibit will still open to the public on September 17, and presumably will still close on November 5.

Reviews
- Mary Ann Wilkinson, "106 Mario Moore", Essay'd, August 5, 2018. "A more recent series turns introspective, his personal story expressed through nearly-lost techniques and an interest in earlier periods of art that lend richness and sensitivity to his highly detailed compositions."
