Panels for our Annual March150 Exhibition are now available for purchase!

We will be selling panels in person at the Torpedo Factory Art Center until February 18, or when supplies run out (Purchase with card only)

Purchasing a panel will ensure you will be part of the exhibition when you submit your finished artwork to the Art Center between March 13 – March 17, 2025. To celebrate the 15th Anniversary, Panels are $10 for everyone! All artists are encouraged to participate. New this year, the traditional 10”x10” panels will be unprimed so you can choose to prime them or keep the natural wood surface.

Carving out Creativity is an experimental series of multimedia immersive exhibitions based on brain activity during the artistic process. The exhibit will occur simultaneously at the 4 locations listed above. Patrons will connect (digitally) to each other by touching stone-carved sculptures both within the location they are in and in the galleries where other artists’ sculptures are exhibited. This connection will happen using experimental haptic and holographic technologies. Our goal is to create new ways for people to envision connections through art across the Commonwealth.

This exhibit is organized by the City of Alexandria’s Office of the Arts and Virginia Tech, including a team of engineers, neuroscientists, and artists from the university’s Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology (ICAT).
