Upcoming Show at Gallery Underground: SPACE

Gallery Underground will present its third partnership exhibition for high school students from the Arlington Career Center (ACC). This year, students chose to explore the concept of “Space”. “Space is where we are but also where we aren’t. Space is something we don’t fully understand but allows for so much possibility.” Come join us at the exhibition this June to challenge your perception of space.

Through mentorship of Arlington Artists Alliance staff and volunteers, 75 students will participate in developing and producing a professional art show. Not only will they exhibit their artwork, each student will frame, price and provide inventory details to the gallery. Select students will curate the exhibition and design promotional materials under the guidance of Alliance staff. The opening reception will include live music by ACC student Julian Eichers.

The opening reception will also feature an informational table about ArtRx, a club at Washington-Liberty High School created by student Nadia Lachhab. ArtRx creates art and writing workshops for hospital patients of all ages. They volunteer at Sibley Memorial Hopsital and St. Jude's Children's Hospital to support mental and social wellbeing through art.

Arlington Artists Alliance and Gallery Underground will donate 30% of all proceeds to the Arlington Career Center Art Department.
