Free to the public ($10 donation is suggested)
During our monthly “Third Thursday” program, featured solo artist G. Pack will talk about his exhibition Revenge is the Least that I Deserve. In his exhibition, G. Pack visually articulates the ongoing cycle of grief and the process of releasing it.
The Washington Studio School
Civic Tongue Opening Reception
Thursday, September 19, 6 to 8 p.m.
Join Washington Studio School and local artists for the opening reception of Civic Tongue. The exhibition features the work of 10 renowned DC street and public engagement artists as they reflect on the topic of democracy. The title plays off the idiom “Civil Tongue” but centers it more specifically on the city, through the use of the word “Civic”. The exhibition will also highlight the work of MasPaz through a newly-painted mural and a special installation in WSS’s nano space, Inglenook Gallery. The opening reception is sponsored by Topo Chico. This exhibition will also be part of Art All Night, where the school welcomes over 700 people to its gallery.
