Photographic wanderings
An exhibit of photographs, "Peter Helms Feresten: '... my thoughts wander to the south side of town,'" opens Thursday, Feb. 2, at the Tarrant County College Southeast Campus, with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Feresten, who taught for years at TCC, documented the changing African-American communities in Fort Worth with an anthropological zeal. Upon his death in 2007, his vast portfolio of photographs was left to the Fort Worth Library. This exhibit is made possible by the permission of Gayle Feresten and the library archives. The free exhibit runs through March 9. 2100 Southeast Parkway, Arlington. 817-515-3406; www.tccd.edu.
