SUMMARY:(No) Comfort Zone (4/5-4/28)
DESCRIPTION:(No) Comfort Zone Art Exhibit\nApril 5-28\, 2019\nOpening Reception: Friday\, April 5 from 7-9pm\n“Scribble Scrabble” by Kelli Sincock\nThe (No) Comfort Zone exhibit reflects people\, places and things that are in and out of the artists’ comfort zone. Join us at the opening reception on Friday\, April 5 from 7-9pm to meet the curators\, Del Ray Artisans members\, and local area high school students who have work in the exhibit. \nThe artwork created from within the comfort zone feels comforting\, at ease\, and reassuring.

The artist was nourished and felt loved\, and the feelings shine through. \nThe artwork created outside the comfort zone can feel dangerous\, but also fun and exciting! Savoring the new\, the unknown\, the unfamiliar and the uncertain\, these artists went to the edge and entered a new zone. \nThe exhibit runs April 5-28\, 2019 at Del Ray Artisans gallery in the Colasanto Center\, 2704 Mount Vernon Avenue\, Alexandria\, Virginia 22301. Gallery hours are: Thursdays 12-6pm\, First Thursdays (April-September) 12-9pm\, Fridays 12-9pm\, Saturdays 12-9pm\, and Sundays 12-6pm.

SUMMARY:Bringing Words to Life (9/30-1/27)
DESCRIPTION:Bringing Words to Life Art Exhibit at VCA Alexandria Animal Hospital\nSeptember 30\, 2018 – January 27\, 2019\n“I Hope You Dance” by Monica Hokeilen\nThe Bringing Words to Life art exhibit at the Veterinary Clinics of America Alexandria Animal Hospital (VCA Alexandria) features Del Ray Artisans members’ artwork. The exhibit is a part of Del Ray Artisans’ Gallery Without Walls (GWW) program in partnership with VCA Alexandria and features paintings\, photography\, and mixed media works of art. \nWords can be powerful forms of art. Whether written\, spoken\, or sung\, words often evoke emotion and meaning that stay with us long after they are finished. Bringing Words to Life pairs a line from an artist’s favorite song\, poem\, book\, or speech with the artist’s visual interpretation of that quote. This exhibit will display the artwork and quoted lines together at VCA Alexandria from September 30\, 2018 through January 27\, 2019. Patrons may view the artwork at VCA Alexandria during regular business hours and at the discretion of hospital staff. \nAll artwork is available for purchase through Del Ray Artisans. Artists are donating 20% of the purchase price of sold pieces in an equal split between Del Ray Artisans and the VCA Alexandria’s charity of choice\, Veterans Moving Forward. Veterans Moving Forward helps veterans lead more productive lives through partnerships with trained assistance animals. Del Ray Artisans and Veterans Moving Forward are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. \nVCA Alexandria Animal Hospital is located at 2660 Duke Street\, Alexandria\, VA 22314. VCA Alexandria staff can be reached by phone at 703-751-2022 or 703-823-3601. Del Ray Artisans’ volunteer GWW curator\, Monica Hokeilen\, may be reached at GWW@DelRayArtisans.org.
