Beyond Function

Address: 105 N. Union St., Target Gallery, Alexandria, VA 22314
Recurrence: Recurring daily

Target Gallery presents Beyond Function, an exhibition focusing on non-functional ceramic artwork. These works go beyond utility, seeking to be valued for their aesthetic quality over their usefulness. In addition, juror Novie Trump and Laurel Lukaszewski will create a site-specific ceramic installation outside of the gallery. Join us for a reception on Thursday, May 9th from 6-8 p.m. to meet some of the artists and hear a juror talk at 7 p.m. View Details
