Arlington, Virginia – Gallery Underground

The Focus Gallery of Gallery Underground will present “Women x Women”, an art exhibition showcasing the work of eight female Arlington Artists Alliance members. Women x Women celebrates the diverse perspectives and experiences of women, highlighting the complexities of being a woman, with all the struggles and joys therein. This group show features charcoal drawings, cold and hot wax treatments, embroidery, encaustic, fused glass, mixed media, acrylic and oil paintings. This show is not to be missed by art lovers, feminists, and anyone looking to broaden their perspectives and celebrate the contributions of women to the art world.

Additionally, our Main Gallery features new works by our gallery members, in media including oil, acrylic, pastel, watermedia, sculpture, glass, and ceramics.

Gallery Underground, the juried gallery of the Arlington Artists Alliance, has been named our region’s “Best Art Gallery” in Northern Virginia Magazine’s 2021 reader survey and has received a 2021 “Arlie” as one of Arlington’s “Best Shops” from the readers of ARLNow. Located in the Crystal City Shops at 2100 Crystal Drive, Arlington, Virginia, this visual arts venue showcases the work of established and emerging regional artists.

Each month the gallery changes its entire exhibit and presents a special solo, group or juried show in the Focus gallery and a new show from its talented members in the Main gallery, in many forms: mixed media, paintings, sculpture, glass, and ceramic art. Gallery Underground anchors the visual arts component of Crystal City’s Art Underground and on First Fridays (first Friday of every month) it hosts an opening reception free and open to all.

Gallery Underground is sponsored by the Arlington Artists Alliance. For more information about the gallery: https://www.arlingtonartistsalliance.org/gallery-underground

Gallery Hours: Monday–Friday, 10am-6pm.

Metro accessible, Blue Line, Crystal City stop. Public garages in the Crystal City shops offer unlimited free parking after 4pm and both gallery and garages are fully handicapped accessible.
