CALL FOR ARTISTS


MARY B. HOWARD ARTIST MEMBER EXHIBITION




The Greater Reston Arts Center is now accepting applications for its second biennial member exhibition. Juried by a distinguished outside guest curator, this group exhibition will feature multiple artists working in a variety of media and treating a wide range of themes. GRACE's Artist Member Exhibition has been renamed this year in memory of Mary B. Howard, an artist and longtime board member and supporter of GRACE. Mary's passionate advocacy of local artists, and her generous bequest to GRACE, are perfectly aligned with the meaning and purpose of the Artist Member Exhibition.
