Look: An Unexpected Arts Experience

February 20-22, Feb. 27-Mar. 1, Mar. 6-8

Art builds community...help us transform a vacant commercial building into a fun, inventive, and interactive POP-UP art space. Over three weekends, the reinvented space will host art exhibits, performances, and hands-on workshops and classes.

Housed in a former Walgreens along Langston Boulevard, the space has been transformed into a vibrant hub for visual arts, creativity, and community connection. Look: an Unexpected Arts Experience is completely free and open to the public. Funded in part through a grant from an Arlington Arts Creative Placemaking Grant, the gallery is a bold new platform for showcasing the diverse talents of artists from across the DMV area, while also creating space for neighborhood-level engagement and cultural exploration. Look Arlington will host a variety of emerging and established local artists, along with live performances, local food offerings and dining incentives, and artist-led workshops.
