This month we celebrate the new exhibition in the Target Gallery, Those Spaces Between Us, while also saluting our service men and women through music and poetry with our partners at Community Building Art Works, as well as a celebration of the 5th Anniversary of the Highest Honor Banner in advance of its grand return to the Art Center at the end of the month.
Enjoy a free hands-on workshop with a Torpedo Factory Art Center artist at the Waterfront entrance of the Art Center.

Highest Honor returns to Torpedo Factory Art Center's atrium this season. Inspired by the building's industrial founding, artist Andy Yoder designed the 25-foot triangular banner as an oversized version of the Army-Navy "E Award," which was presented to workers during WWII for excellence in production of war equipment.

The New Project Studio will host an exhibition of the 2021 AIA Virginia Prize competition. The competition — which took place over the weekend of Jan. 22–25, 2021 — was inspired by the Equal Justice Initiative’s Community Remembrance Project and challenged students to design a pillar installation for the City of Alexandria’s Market Square.
ALX Pride was developed in 2018 as a community-focused event to celebrate LGBTQ+-identifying creatives in the Alexandria area and beyond. The Art Center is pleased to bring back this event and provide arts projects along the Waterfront and the Union Street entrances as well as a virtual broadcast. Please note the Art Center will not be open during these after hours events.
