By The People x Monochrome Virtual Art Fair

Halcyon has once again partnered with Monochrome Collective for a virtual art fair exhibition featuring some of the DMV's most talented and exciting emerging artists. The By The People x Monochrome Collective Art Fair highlights the artistic richness and diversity of our community of working artists and cultivates a culture of support for practicing artists and locally-focused art collecting. We're especially proud to continue this partnership in light of the profound impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on working artists.

This year's art fair will include over 100 artists representing all eight D.C. wards, Maryland, and Virginia. To highlight these amazing creatives, take a peek behind the scenes of their artistic practices during our special programming as you browse the artworks on view in the virtual exhibition space and choose a piece (or two) to take home. The site will be open to the public throughout the exhibition, but by registering for this event you will receive a link in your inbox to the website when the 'doors' open at noon on June 26, 2020, as well as updates on virtual programming like artist talks and studio visits.
