June 3 through September 29, 2019
This one is for the locals! Del Ray Artisans’ Gallery Without Walls (GWW) exhibit, Uncommon Alexandria, at the Veterinary Clinics of America Alexandria Animal Hospital (VCA Alexandria) features artwork inspired by common scenes of our daily lives. This uncommon approach to showcasing scenes of, and around, Alexandria skips the touristy sights to better reflect our neighborhoods, towns, and communities.
Uncommon Alexandria runs June 3 – September 29, 2019 at VCA Alexandria, 2660 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314. Patrons may view the artwork at VCA Alexandria during regular business hours and at the discretion of hospital staff. Regular hours are Monday through Friday 8am–8pm, Saturday 8am–3pm, and closed Sunday.
All the artwork on display is by Del Ray Artisans members. Artists are donating 20% of the purchase price of sold pieces to Del Ray Artisans, who is splitting the donation with VCA Alexandria’s charity of choice, the Wildlife Rescue League. The Wildlife Rescue League provides care for sick, injured and orphaned wildlife with the intent of releasing them back into their native habitat. Del Ray Artisans and Wildlife Rescue League are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations.
