(No) Comfort Zone (4/5-4/28)
Fri, April 5, 2019 - Sun, April 28, 2019
(No) Comfort Zone Art Exhibit
April 5-28, 2019
Opening Reception: Friday, April 5 from 7-9pm
The (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.
The artwork created from within the comfort zone feels comforting, at ease, and reassuring. The experience was free from anxiety, stress, uncertainty, scarcity and vulnerability. The artist was nourished and felt loved, and the feelings shine through.
The 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.
The 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. The gallery is free, open to the public, and accessible.
For more information, please contact the curators Joe Franklin (franklinjoet@gmail.com) and Kelli Sincock (MsKelliArt@gmail.com) or Director of Curating Brittany Gabel (Curating@DelRayArtisans.org).
