"MIX: Adventures in Mixed Media" exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery

The exhibit runs May 1-31, 2015 at Del Ray Artisans gallery.

MIX: Adventures in Mixed Media art exhibit runs through May 31, 2015 at Del Ray Artisans gallery. Del Ray Artisans and Artistic Artifacts teamed up to curate this collaborative juried exhibit featuring artwork from area artists. The juror is Rosalee Lamanna, a mixed media artist and long-time owner of Alexandria’s Beads Ltd (www.beadsltdva.com). The exhibit “shakes up the imagination” as artists portray the popular mixed media movement using two or more mediums including paint, fiber, paper, graphite, sculpture, jewelry, found objects, quilts, altered books, and more.

Del Ray Artisans and Artistic Artifacts, a local arts and crafts store, will offer workshops and classes for anyone interested in mixed media. Artists and patrons alike can also learn more about mixed media and get inspiration by going to the Facebook page: “MIX: Adventures in Mixed Media”.
