The Quarantine Creations exhibit at the Veterinary Clinics of America Alexandria Animal Hospital (VCA Alexandria) features artwork based on our quarantine experiences. We all have been going through some challenging times during this COVID-19 pandemic. Our lives have changed drastically due to the global quarantine, and we have had to make many adjustments in our own unique ways. Quarantine Creations is a Del Ray Artisans’ Gallery Without Walls exhibit in partnership with VCA Alexandria.

This exhibit originally opened July 6, 2020. In preparation of the facility reopening to clients after a period of closure due to the pandemic, additional artworks were added to the exhibit on June 1, 2021 to expand and refresh the exhibit. The closing date has been extended from October 24, 2020 to September 25, 2021.

The artwork is viewable online and by appointment only (Monday-Saturday 8am-4pm). Please contact Stephanie Frederick at VCAGWW2020@gmail.com to schedule an appointment. VCA Alexandria is located at 2660 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314.

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, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
