Effective January 1: Masks are Optional in VisArts’ Classrooms and Studios

NextGen 7.0

VisArts presents NextGen 7.0, a juried group exhibition that showcases next generation aspiring artists 17 to 27 years of age from the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area. The annual exhibition offers young artists, who have little to no exhibition record, the opportunity to bring their work to a wider audience.

The exhibition is planned and realized by a dedicated team of gallery interns and volunteers with mentorship from the VisArts gallery staff. In its seventh iteration, the NextGen exhibition continues to impress and inspire. A rising generation is hard at work making powerful, thoughtful, and excellent artwork, says Susan Main, Gallery Director and Curator at VisArts. Behind every aspect of this exhibition is a passionate team of interns committed to bringing the work of promising artists into the light of the community.

This year the jurors are Shané K. Gooding and Leslie Holt.
