Each of these artworks were created by masterful artists working at the highest levels of skill in their respective media....ceramics, watercolor, oil paintings, crystal engraving. Each of these pieces speak for themselves. And yet....

UNDER THE "LEADERSHIP" OF THE OFFICE OF THE ARTS, THIS ARTWORK IS BEING EVICTED FROM THE TORPEDO FACTORY!

The Office of the Arts was permitted to go forward with a flawed and imbalanced re-jury process, in spite of objections from all quarters. And now here is the result - some of the Torpedo Factory's best talent losing their studios.

The chief architects behind this travesty:

Diane Ruggiero - diane.ruggiero@alexandriava.gov

Brett Johnson - brett.johnson@alexandriava.gov

The Alexandria City Council is mostly aloof to what is actually going on at the Torpedo Factory, but they need to know how you feel about this outrage. You can reach them here:
