2nd Saturday Art Walk, February 11

The 2^nd Saturday Art Walk at the Workhouse showcases the diverse work of more than 100 visual artists in a unique historic venue, creating an atmosphere that encourages visitors to immerse themselves in the richness of this creative community.

Guests can tour seven unique studio buildings, mix and mingle with artists, buy original works of art, experience ever-changing exhibitions and meet featured artists, all while enjoying light refreshments and music. The social atmosphere of the monthly art walk makes it the perfect destination for a date night or girl's night out, as well as for art collectors and art appreciation groups alike. These monthly events are also perfect for family art outings.

In the Vulcan Gallery, enjoy an exhibition reception introducing the new work of the Workhouse Associate Artists, and that of the group's featured artist of the month.

HAVE A HEART: Interactive Art Installation in Building W-4

From October through February, Studio W-4 is conducting a food drive to benefit Food for Others. Food for Others, the largest distributer of free food directly to people in need in Northern Virginia, provides the assistance vitally needed by our unemployed and low income neighbors. They provide a safety net for those who suddenly face unforeseen emergencies such as a family illness or the loss of a job or spouse.

Items donated will become main components of an interactive art installation which will open to the public on Saturday, February 11, 2012 during the Workhouse's 2nd Saturday Art Walk from 6-9pm.

YOU can be a part of this exciting art installation and help Northern Virginians in need by donating canned or non-perishable food items at Studio W-4.
