First Friday Hit List

Speaking of the West Crossroads, Red Star Studios, a longtime ceramic-art destination, is moving to new digs (apologies for using the word digs — won’t happen again). While it awaits the opening of a new facility, the large-hearted Belger Arts Center (2100 Walnut, 816-474-3250) has set up its ground floor as a studio and exhibition space for the Red Star ceramists. Tonight, see pottery and sculpture by Michael Fujita and Mike Jabbur. Meanwhile, Beneath the Surface — Excavating the Belger Collection continues its run on the Belger’s top floor, featuring long-unseen works by such artists as Ed Ruscha, Terry Winters and Robert Stackhouse. For more information, see belgerartscenter.org.
