Artist Gathering + Artist Talk & First Friday

Come join us at (DU) for a community building event for DMV-based artists. All artistic mediums and all years of experience are welcome and encouraged to join, and art lovers are welcome too. Bring art friends and make new ones too!

All are welcome to enjoy Dupont Underground (free!) as part of the Dupont Circle First Fridays Art Walk.

We will hold two panel discussions from 7-8 pm connecting with artists who have worked with Dupont Underground for past, present, and upcoming arts events. We will discuss how to leverage this unique space for community building in the local arts scene, and engage audience members in discussion about how to keep building. More details coming soon!

Share a part of your artistic vision and receive someone else's with a memorable takeaway.

• Attendees are encouraged to bring a tangible item emblematic of your artistic work, worth no more than $25, to exchange with another artist. An example could be preparatory sketches, draft but signed copies of written work, a sample track—whatever you find to be creative, fun, and inexpensive.
• All artists participating in the exchange receive a randomized item from another participating artist halfway through the event.
• While not required, we encourage artists to include a social media handle or website information so that the recipient can follow your work in the future.

Dupont Underground is an arts organization that has transformed 15,000 sqft of an abandoned streetcar station under Dupont Circle into a hub for creative exchange and contemporary arts in our vibrant city. We cannot wait to connect with you!
