The panel was moderated by Christina Rees, a Glasstire correspondent and director of Fort Worth Contemporary Arts.

No disrespect, but … Regionalism (capital R) is an ongoing Art movement. Not a figment, nostalgic, quaint, or unambitious, certainly not dead. Just thought folk should know. It would have been interesting if the panel had included an actual Regionalist.
