This year, The Art League is commemorating a 50-year legacy of supporting the arts and nurturing artists in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The Art League, with its prestigious gallery and school, is the fruit of the work of thousands of artists and art patrons from the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia area.

They currently have the Patron's Show on exhibit, one of their major fundraisers, where 600 area artists donate a work of art and historically all 600 are snapped by collectors through a raffle process. Through February 15. Following that, they will have (from February 19-23) their biennial Ikebana show, where designers of the Sogetsu school of Ikebana will create graceful Japanese flower designs in pottery handcrafted by Torpedo Factory artists. This show also features an Ikebana Arranging Demonstration and a Japanese Tea Ceremony.
