Join us in our gallery at Washington Studio School on Friday, September 4 from 6 PM to 8PM for the exhibition opening of Art Is Not Decoration a juried exhibition, featuring works by over 40 Washington Studio School students created from 2024-26. Guided by the core belief that "drawing is thinking," WSS equips artists with the tools to push beyond fixed styles into uncharted creative territory. Experience a dynamic collection spanning collage, drawing, printmaking, painting, and design that showcases rigorous research, intentional experimentation, and authentic artistic growth. This show is juried by WSS Faculty members Marie B. Gauthiez and Paul Pietsch.

This event is free and open to the public in collaboration with Dupont BID First Friday ArtWalk programming.
