Javelin's Canyon Candy on View (Tues.-Fri., noon- 5pm) The Clocktower Gallery's current exhibition features a large screen viewing theater for the 16-minute film by Mike Anderson and music by Javelin alongside a winding walk through a maze of life size dioramas including a wind-washed cabin, termite hills and cactus fields with glimpses of coyotes, campsites, and lawless hijinx.
