Westover will show 13 of Mr. Black’s works, including several specifically related to the Village, including Ayers, Lebanese Taverna, Lost Dog, Stray Cat, Welcome to Westover, and Westover Beer Garden.

Mr. Black is a poet, book artist, and photographer, and the founder and owner of Turtle Light Press (turtlelightpress.com).

He also freelanced for numerous national newspapers and magazines, including The LA Times and The Boston Globe. His work is featured in the guest rooms of the Falls Church Hilton Garden Inn as well as in fine galleries and gift stores in Virginia, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
