Our Stories, Our Journeys

In conjunction with this online show, join a workshop on how to tell the stories behind your art. We'll also cohost an online storytelling happy hour with members of the Bender Jewish Community Center in Rockville, introducing your art to a new audience.  

JUNE
Creative Expressions

We don’t know yet whether our annual judged show will be in person or online. But this marquee event on our annual calendar will continue nonetheless, with a judge awarding prizes in multiple categories.

JULY-AUGUST
Fantasy: An Online Exhibition

Fantasy is defined as “the faculty or activity of imagining things, especially things that are impossible or improbable.” How does that translate to your artwork? Let’s explore it in this online exhibition.

SEPTEMBER
Paint the Town Labor Day Show

Fingers crossed that conditions allow for our annual Paint the Town Labor Day Show and plein air competition to take place! If so, the weekend-long event will be September 4-6 in Kensington.

NOVEMBER-DECEMBER
10x10 Online Show and Sale

Just in time for the holidays: Members will be invited to create any work that’s 10x10 inches in size and priced at $100. We’ll promote the show as a way to purchase cool holiday gifts.
