Fall Workshop Offerings

Fall Workshop Offerings

This fall, MPA is excited to announce an extensive fall workshop lineup. Offerings include new workshops, such as Beginning Video Editing and Painted Leather Bag Workshop, as well as returning favorites such as Ronni Jolles' always-popular Creating Artwork with Layered Paper series.

Call for Submissions

Call for Submissions

Calling all artists! MPA is currently seeking submissions for winter exhibition, PhotoGenesis 2. Mid-Atlantic artists are invited to submit work that springs from photographic images, ideas or techniques. Work may, but need not necessarily remain within the realm of photography to be included in the exhibit.
