Touchstone Gallery Opening Friday for "Minisolos"

This Friday, August 5, from 6 to 8:30PM, Touchstone Gallery opens its latest show, "MiniSolos@Touchstone," which features works of thirty seven artists.

From the press release:

Touchstone Gallery continues the tradition of sharing its space by presenting the work of 37 area artists during the month of August. This MiniSolos@Touchstone artists exhibition fills two perpetual community needs: that of giving emerging, artists the rare opportunity for exhibition space in top-notch downtown gallery, and that of providing collectors access to work they don't yet know. The new voices in this exhibit offer viewers a range of imagery from the serene to the vivid to the provocative.

A small companion show, Summer Sampler, includes a variety of works across all media by Touchstone Gallery members. In these uncertain times, it is more important than ever to foster a thriving local arts scene. Support your local artists and join us for MiniSolos@Touchstone and Summer Sampler from August 4 - 27, 2011.

Participating artists: Nancy Abeles, David Alfuth, Stephanie Bianco, Kimberly Bush, Mason Thorpe Calhoun, Laurence Chandler, Megan Coyle, Ellen Delaney, Jonathan French, Judy Giuliani, Denise Graveline, Lynne Eve Grossman, Eric Johnson, Gongsam KimPark, Lauren Kotkin, Margret Kroyer, Christine Learned, Linda Lowery, Sue Lutz, Iris Malloy, Eve Monte, Carlos Munoz, Eileen Olson, Cheryl Parsons, Kathy J Paz, Ellen Ratner, Deborah Saks, Bhaval Shah Bell, Fred Tarr, Inna Timokhina, Tre, Tinam Valk, Susan Van Pool, Kay Walsh, James Wang, Hilda Witherspoon, Richard F.

Touchstone Gallery has been an artist-owned gallery for 35 years. The gallery moved in September 2010 to its current location in a modern loft-style space at 901 New York Ave NW in downtown Washington. You'll find this newly designed gallery near the Convention Center. It is a short walk from Mt. Vernon Sq., 7th St-Convention Center, and Metro Center metro rail stops and numerous parking garages. Gallery hours: Wednesday-Thursday 11-6, Friday 11-8, Saturday-Sunday 12-5.
