The Journey |
We went out to Chinati to see the work not included on our guided tour tomorrow. Maybe it was the heat, but we both discovered we are not really Donald Judd fans. What does that mean for the next two days? We found our way to the historic and segregated Blackwell School (https://www.theblackwellschool.org) which served the Hispanic children of Marfa. It has been preserved thanks to the work of the school’s alumni and it was recently designated a National Historic Site. Today there was a Block Party to celebrate, which mean the site was busy and festive. It has such an interesting history and the community seems to have really come togther to celebrate it. It’s a great project. https://www.texasmonthly.com/being-texan/marfas-blackwell-school-has-a-painful-past-thats-why-the-town-wants-to-save-it/ Ended the day with a great Tex Mex dinner in a hole-in-the-wall, thanks to Yelp.
