Opening Reception + Annual Meeting Celebration: Thursday, October 15, 6-7:30pm
Arlington Center for the Arts' 2026 Members Show: Opposites Attract reflects the diverse subjects, mediums and viewpoints of our creative community. Works are thoughtfully placed to highlight opposing stories, subjects, approaches and materials, creating dialogues and new considerations. Over 40 works come together and are recontextualized through their relationships to one another. Opposites Attract reveals an artistic community in conversation with itself, celebrating the unexpected ways individual perspectives can speak to one another.
