Museum-Quality Exhibitions
EXHIBITIONS: MPA HOSTS 8-12 MUSEUM-QUALITY EXHIBITIONS ANNUALLY, FROM CURATED EXHIBITIONS AROUND A CENTRAL THEME TO JURIED SHOWS OF OVER 30 ARTISTS. OUR EXHIBITIONS AND OPENING RECEPTIONS ARE FREE, OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND FULLY ACCESSIBLE/ADA COMPLIANT. MPA EXHIBITIONS ARE FREQUENTLY REVIEWED BY THE WASHINGTON POST WITH POSITIVE COMMENTARY ABOUT THEIR ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE. OUR GALLERIES ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT-AFTER EXHIBITION SPACES FOR ARTISTS, HAVING SHOWN THE WORK OF APPROXIMATELY 3,500 ARTISTS OVER 60 YEARS, AND WELCOMING 1,500 IN-PERSON GALLERY VISITORS ANNUALLY. IN RECENT YEARS (IN RESPONSE TO THE PANDEMIC), MPA ADDED VIRTUAL PRESENTATIONS OF OUR EXHIBITIONS TO OUR WEBSITE AND OFFERED ZOOM EXHIBITION OPENINGS AND ARTIST TALKS, AND INPRINT AND VIDEO PRESENTATIONS, ALL OF WHICH HAVE EXPANDED THE REACH OF THIS ASPECT OF OUR PROGRAMMING. OUR VIRTUAL EXHIBITIONS HAVE BEEN WELL ATTENDED WITH APPROXIMATELY 80 PARTICIPANTS PER SESSION. ALTHOUGH MPA HAS RESUMED ALL IN-PERSON GALLERY TOURS AND PROGRAMMING TO ENCOURAGE AND SUPPORT EXHIBITING ARTISTS, WE INTENTIONALLY CONTINUE TO DELIVER OUR PROGRAMMING ONLINE AND IN OTHER FORMATS TO ENSURE THE BROADEST ACCESSIBILITY POSSIBLE ACROSS OUR COMMUNITY AND COMMONWEALTH.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2023 – Jun 30, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$162.7KArts Education Center Development
