'Ephemeral' Sculpture Gallery Now Open in Reston Town Center

The gallery is hosted by the Greater Reston Arts Center in conjunction with the Washington Sculptors Group, and will run through Nov. 14.

A new art exhibition titled Ephemeral opened today at the Greater Reston Arts Center (GRACE) featuring the work of 27 members of the Washington Sculptors Group.

These sculptures aim to present the concept of ephemerality, and the exhibition provides a number of different interpretations in one place.

“Collectively, these works heighten our awareness of the passage of time, and remind us that although art is not always long, its ability to provoke reflection and encapsulate complex ideas enriches our own transitory existence,” read a GRACE press release promoting the gallery.
