"(No) Comfort Zone" Art Exhibit at Del Ray Artisans Gallery

Opening Reception: Friday April 5 from 7-9pm

The (No) Comfort Zone exhibit reflects people, places and things that are in and out of the artists’ comfort zone. The show runs April 5-28, 2019 at Del Ray Artisans gallery. Join us for the opening reception on Friday, April 5 from 7-9pm to meet the curators, Del Ray Artisans members, and local area high school students who have work in the exhibit.

The artwork created from within the comfort zone feels comforting, at ease, and reassuring. The experience was free from anxiety, stress, uncertainty, scarcity and vulnerability. The artist was nourished and felt loved, and the feelings shine through.

The artwork created outside the comfort zone can feel dangerous, but also fun and exciting! Savoring the new, the unknown, the unfamiliar and the uncertain, these artists went to the edge and entered a new zone.

The (No) Comfort Zone exhibit is at Del Ray Artisans gallery in the Colasanto Center, 2704 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, Virginia 22301. Gallery hours are: First Thursdays (April–September) 12-9pm, Thursdays 12-6pm, Fridays 12-9pm, Saturdays 12-9pm, and Sundays 12-6pm. The gallery is free, open to the public, and accessible.
