Blurred Lines
Where: R Gallery
When: 6 p.m.-11p.m.
Price: Free

Blurred Lines blends photography with a host of other media and gives four local San Antonio-based photographers the chance to showcase their art. This 2015 Fotoseptiembre USA exhibition allows each artist to show their way of bringing photography to life through drawing, illustration, installation, sculpture and video. The show examines the photography medium and allows these four artists “to break out of the traditional 2D format and to blur the lines between traditional photography and new media.”

Alta Violet
Where: Paper Tigers
When: 9 p.m.

Musician River Jones is the driving force behind the ATX original Alta Violet.

Known as a prolific writer with songs that draw on personal history, Jones has described songwriting as a way to approach and discuss important moments, people and phases of his life and move past them. Doors for this all-ages show open at 9 p.m. with tickets only available first-come-first-served at the door.
