Opening Reception: Saturday, July 11, 2026, 6–8 PM
Exhibition programming sponsored by Micron.

The Prince William Art Society presents “Nostalgia”, a group exhibition featuring work by 25 local artists and members. On view from July 10 through August 9, 2026, at ARTfactory in Historic Manassas, the exhibition explores nostalgia as an emotional landscape shaped by memory, longing, and the passage of time.

Through a wide range of artistic interpretations, the works in the exhibition serve as portals into moments that feel half-remembered—places once known, emotions once lived, and histories inherited rather than personally experienced. Texture, sound, color, and form become vehicles for memory, evoking both personal and collective pasts while revealing how nostalgia shifts across individual perspectives.

Participating Artists:
Danielle Bancroft, Fatima Batool, Zee Berrios, Staci Blanchard, Larry Burch, Evelyn Chatters, Doreen Dauer, Katie Keller Dugan, Scott Elliott, Michelle Evans, Nicole M Fisher, Kathleen Gates, Sheri Herrick, Lizzy B. Javier, Absku KOY, Sandra Lewin, Donna Liguria, April Mckether, Mark Murphy, Katharine Owens, L Palladino, Tom Payne, Mandy Powell, Tinnetta Putney, Bettie Sperty

Did you know that Disney's Lion King JR follows the same story as the full-length Broadway version where we follow Simba's journey from curious cub to king of the Pride Lands, but is performed in only one act. Unlike the full Broadway version, the JR. edition condenses the story into a single performance of about an hour. Perfect for young theater-goers, and little ones just learning about live theater.
