Art Talk to feature artist Caleb Jacks

The Visual Art League of Lewisville will present artist and high school art teacher Caleb Jacks at its monthly Art Talk event on Tuesday, Oct. 10, 7 p.m., at Lewisville Grand Theater, 100 N. Charles Street.

He likes to work in traditional media and digital art using Procreate. Recently he started getting into “world building” with dioramas. Attendees can see his chalk wall murals currently on display in the Lewisville Grand Theater lobby above the Church Street and Main Street entrances.
