Since we are a dance group, you will need a pair of shoes for dancing on our awesome wood floor. Dance shoes or a pair of leather bottom shoes with no nails, street debris or stiletto heels.

Featuring abstract, colourful, textural canvases, the paintings depict imagined spaces inspired by real life imagery. Metallic paint causes images to appear to shift depending on how the light hits them, or where the viewer is standing.

The Korean Cultural Center Washington, D.C. proudly presents The Culture of Time and Space, a new exhibition of digital media art that explores the convergence of Korean traditional beauty and contemporary technology, featuring works by Korean media artist HyeGyung Kim.
Kim focuses on the convergence of digital media and Taoism through the medium of East Asian antiques. She experiments with connections between digital media and traditional Oriental art that represents Korean beauty through projection mapping and interactive media. She presents not only projection mapping onto Korean traditional crafts such as porcelain and antique wooden furniture, but also interactive media art that integrates light, sound, and movement. Ultimately, Kim hopes to provide an experience beyond space and time through this artistic dialogue. This exhibition aims to introduce the vibrancy of Korean contemporary media art and the deep connections possible between traditional aesthetic values and Korea’s prominent digital technology of today.
Admission to the exhibition opening reception featuring talks by the artist on Friday, February 22 at 6:00 p.m. is free and open to the public, but registration is required at www.KoreaCultureDC.org. The Culture of Time and Space will remain on view during regular hours through April 22, 2019.

As a plein air painter and a creator of monotypes, she aims to capture the effects of these changing conditions on colors, shapes, and shadows in the marshes, dunes, and shorelines of Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, and Provincetown.
Opening Reception: Saturday, March 9, 4 to 6pm
The Glen Echo Park Partnership is pleased to present Landscape and Memory, An Elemental Journey. This exhibition brings together a dynamic collection of ceramic sculptures — both recent works and works from his past — by sculptor Robert Devers. The exhibition is centered around a large floor installation titled “Low Tide.” “Low Tide” is composed of various objects, both found and made by the hand of the artist, that present a collective source of inspiration for Devers. The piece serves as the locus of memory for the recurring themes found in Devers’ work.
The Glen Echo Park Partnership is pleased to present Voyages: Travel Photography by Michael Horan.

Opening Reception: Saturday, March 9, 4 to 6pm
Jeffrey Human’s paintings use acrylics, oils and collage. His themes are based on books, stories, music, memories, dreams, poems and everyday living in troubled times. His show will feature abstractions as well as work that explores the territory between conceptualism and realism.
Each painting will be accompanied with an annotation about what inspired it, or the composition and techniques used. For example, the notes for the painting, Unstuck… includes a discussion of the book Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut, and how this book inspired and connects to the painting.
