Trinity University’s Department of Human Communication and Theatre closes its 60th theatrical season with NOT EVERY MOUNTAIN, created and presented by Stieren Guest Artists Rude Mechs as part of the Stieren Arts Enrichment Series. Performances run April 23, 24, 25 at 8:00pm and April 26 at 2:00pm, in the Stieren Theater of the Ruth Taylor Theater Building. Admission is free, and seats are limited. Reservations are available at https://tumountain.eventbrite.com.
NOT EVERY MOUNTAIN is a mellow meditation on change, permanence and our place in the natural world. It is a presentation of the life cycle of mountains and the processes by which they are born and eventually laid to rest, an invocation of tectonic force and geologic time. Using string, cardboard and magnets, NOT EVERY MOUNTAIN invites us to watch the collective effort of making and unmaking a series of interlocking mountain ranges. We watch minutes, or perhaps centuries, unfold, as mountains rise and fall, clouds dance, birds alight and depart, and a moon delicately hangs overhead. NOT EVERY MOUNTAIN features music and sound created using earth’s most prominent natural frequency, The Schumann Resonance, and is underscored by a poetic recitation—or perhaps a spiritual incantation.

Opening Reception for Eric O'Connell's Pinhole Photography Exhibit is on March 29, 2026 at 3:00 PM.
The show opens March 22, 2026 through May 27, 2026, and presents creative pinhole portraits of San Antonio Artist immersed in their artform.
The opening exhibit of Eric O’Connell’s pinhole photography invites viewers into a living moment where time, movement, and memory converge. Through long exposures that compress minutes into a single frame, O’Connell reveals portraits that are both sharp and softly obscured, capturing not just a subject’s image but the interaction, motion, and atmosphere surrounding them.
Ghostly blurs, shifting shadows, and layered spaces create a sense of transparency and connection, allowing creativity, place, and presence to merge into one unified view. This exhibit asks audiences to slow down and consider the fleeting, often overlooked relationships between time, the artist, and the world they inhabit.
