| Description |
Del Ray Artisans (DRA) is pleased to announce its
first monthly art market. The market will be held in the Nicholas A. Colasanto Park,
adjoining the Del Ray Artisans gallery at 2704 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, VA
(corner of Commonwealth Avenue and Mount Vernon Avenue). This is a rain or shine
event and is free and open to the public.
A variety of original artwork from over 20 artists will be displayed for sale including, but
not limited to, painting, photography, pottery, jewelry, and glasswork.
The grand opening festivities on June 5th, 2010 will include music by the Lovejoy
Group, dancing by the GMU Capoeira Club and yummy food by Sapore d’Italia.
Market Creator and Coordinator Kimberley Bush felt that the city of Alexandria needed a
monthly art market. She also felt that the DRA artists and artisans would benefit from
consistent exposure to the art world. This event will be another opportunity and a
perfect venue to connect with the community.
