It's not really March in Phoenix until artist Beatrice Moore is putting on her annual Mutant Piñata show. This year's featured some creative works, including a giant Donald Trump head. There was lots of other thought-provoking fare at other venues, too. Ann Morton showed art made with trash from the local dump. And Rachel Goodwin filled a giant bin with colorful pillows for an exhibition exploring consumer culture. Here's a look back a fun mix of March exhibitions in metro Phoenix. Photos by Lynn Trimble.
