This year’s event is in Crystal City (Arlington, VA):
Where: 1851 S. Bell Street, Arlington, VA (Crystal City metro)
Where I will be: The 2nd floor, Space 146.
When: May 18 through June 23, 2011.

The exhibit was juried by Mark Robarge and installed in FCA’s gallery, ArtSpace. I had two pieces juried into the show, “Reach” and “China Doll.” “China Doll” was awarded second place.
