*Due to popular demand, this exhibition is extended through January 31*
In the New Project Studio, The HRCHY CIA + Merimart present an exhibition of up-and-coming artists from the metropolitan area.
Connecting the Dots is a hyper-intimate, yet eccentric show. Using the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority’s train line structure as inspiration, artists are exhibited via Metro stops and state lines, highlighting the unique experience and identities of being a young artist living in the DMV (DC/Maryland/Virginia).
The project serves an an incubator for local artisans, influencers, and creatives to network, create, brainstorm, and share ideas.
