Gaze through the looking glass during the NCAGG exhibit

Enter the enchanting world of artistic glass as Friendship Gallery hosts the mesmerizing works of the National capitol Art Glass Guild in June. “Through the Looking Glass” presents dozens of art glass works by the National Capitol Art Glass Guild. Glass can be cut, crushed, heated and molded. It is at the same time fragile and incredibly strong. As an artistic vehicle, glass allows artists the freedom and flexibility to explore a vast range of colors, transparency and opaqueness; fluidity and movement; painterly and sculptural expressions in landscapes, portraits and abstract designs in both 2- and 3-dimensional artworks. Please read more about the exhibit in the Village News. Come and see this color- and light-filled show that the Guild is happy to share with the Friendship Heights Community. The exhibit runs June 3-June 27. Meet the artists during a reception on Thursday, June 13, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The Village Center is open Monday-Thursday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Art in the auditorium is occasionally unavailable for viewing because of activities in that room. Please check with the front desk upon arrival. All sales final.
