Exhibit in September by Del Ray Artisans featuring artistic creations made from recycled materials

Del Ray Artisans is set to host an intriguing exhibit titled "Second Time Around," running from Friday, September 5, to Saturday, September 27. The exhibit, which will be held at their location on 2704 Mount Vernon Avenue, promises to be a must-see for art enthusiasts and environmentalists alike.

The exhibit, curated by multimedia artist Tracy Wilkerson, encourages the acquisition of items from others instead of purchasing new items at a retail store. This approach aims to promote the sale, giving, or donation of items instead of sending them to landfills, making it a sustainable and eco-friendly event.

In addition, the exhibit also encourages offering items no longer needed to others instead of throwing them away or recycling them. This emphasis on reusing and repurposing items aligns perfectly with the exhibit's focus on recycled materials.

For those interested in attending, the exhibit will open on Friday, September 5, with a complimentary reception from 7 to 9 p.m. You can also view the exhibit and book your spot for the reception on Eventbrite.

The curator of this thought-provoking exhibit is Kathleen Cushman. Cushman's dedication to promoting sustainable practices through art makes her an ideal choice for this exhibit.

So, mark your calendars for next month, as Del Ray Artisans presents "Second Time Around," an exhibit that encourages you to think twice before buying new and promotes the use of recycled materials in art. It's not just an exhibit; it's a call to action for a more sustainable future.
