Juror Selections: August Open Exhibit

"Art League Alexandria Gallery" by Steve Mabley; Oil
This month’s Open Exhibit features 110 works by Art League member artists — spanning painting, drawing, mixed media, photography, glass, and ceramics. Juried by Jessica Randolph, Associate Creative Director at Anacostia Arts Center, the exhibit is a celebration of artistic range and vision. While juror selections are always subjective, the chosen works stood out for their craft, creativity, and impact.
Congratulations to our August honorees!
