Part skate park, part secret pop-up art show, The Late Shift: Freestyle is the first of three late-night festivals over the course of the 2017 summer season. Experience late-night art happenings in the Torpedo Factory and along the riverfront. Featuring music, DIY projects, digital video projections, artists from all over the DMV, a photo booth, and more. FREE; all are welcome.
In June, we invite you to cool off from the heat and join our “Summer Social”! Featuring receptions in Target Gallery, Art League Gallery, and The Associate Gallery, as well as new projects and artists in the Post Grad Studio and the New Project Studio.
Experience a late-night celebration of food, art, and music along the riverfront and in the Torpedo Factory.
Enjoy a special after-hours event at the Torpedo Factory Art Center every month. Browse open studios and galleries, interact with artists, and enjoy special programming. Stop by on your way to dinner and make an evening of it!
Join us on Second Thursday Art Night: Collage/Melange as our Summer 2017 Post-Graduate Resident, Lindsay Hall, offers an artist demonstration in her studio and talks up her creative process with visitors.
The Torpedo Factory partners with USO Metro, Combat Paper NJ, Warrior Writers, and Community Building Artworks to host a one-night art exhibition of works made by veterans and service members. Artworks on display are all created from paper made from cut uniforms.
The last of the summer Late Shift events is Boardwalk Nights. Enjoy street performers, games, acrobats, waterfront artist market, and mermaids.
This month we celebrate “The Shock of the New.” Visit new exhibitions in the Target Gallery, Art League Gallery, and Associate Gallery. Check out a Late Shift retrospective in the New Project Studio. Spend time with Lindsay Hall before her artist talk later this month. Take part in a DIY activity with the Artists Association. Live music provided by DJ Vico Vibes. Wine, beer, and sweets provided by EatsPlace.
As Lindsay Hall wraps up her time in the Post Graduate Studio (Studio 12), we invite you to join us for a reception and artist talk, moderated by artist Danni O'Brien. Hear about the "tubes and sacks" she's had on view in her studio and what she hopes the next chapter has in store.
The Torpedo Factory Art Center welcomes back the Washington DC Chapter of ACM SIGGRAPH to host the 44th Annual SIGGRAPH Computer Animation Festival Showcase in Alexandria, Va.
