Annaburg Manor Art Reception in Pictures

An art show may look great in pictures (and this art show does) but there is no comparison to seeing an art show in person to fully get the affect in the color, size, emotion of the art when seeing it in person, in your face.

There are various art friends from my art groups including the Prince William Art Society (PWAS) and the Association of Visual Artists (AVA). There are also many other local artists from the surrounding area and so many different styles and mediums. 

Artwork and Artist Sightings include: Sandra McClelland Lewin, Rebekah Keener, Mark Clifton, Mark Murphy, Mike Flynn, Kelly Haneklau, Laura Lavarnway, Zee Berrios, Kwaku "Absku" Ofori-Yirenkyi, Maureen Guillot, and Michele Frantz

Everyone: Go by and see this wonderful art show in this historic location. A percentage of art sales goes to the restoration of Annaburg.

Artists: See your painting? Drop a comment and share!

Post 450: MAG Art Show at the ARTfactory in Manassas, VA

MAG Art Show at the ARTfactory in Manassas, VA

The Manassas Art Guild (MAG) artists have a beautiful art show now up at the ARTfactory in Manassas, VA which will be up until about July 9ish, 2026. I know a lot of the artists now on display, and you'll enjoy their art, so stop in to see them! 

A Moment in Time

The ARTfactory is at 9419 Battle Street, Manassas, VA and the MAG group's show is called "A Moment in Time". I visited the show while I was in Manassas - I had just visited the Creative Brush Studio and Gallery's art show called "America the Beautiful" so a very short drive down a few blocks was next on my agenda to see this show.

I'm not currently a member of the MAG group, but I have been, and I've met many very, very talented artists with the group that I now call friends. There is a variety of art up to see in a variety of mediums.



An art class was ongoing given by another artist friend, John Hart. He is so talented and fun! An art class at an art gallery called the ARTfactory amongst the artworks by other artists showing their art, while other artists are making art and visitors are admiring art. Say that 2 times fast.

I saw art by Bettie Sperty, Larry Burch, Stephanie McGee, Laura Lavarnway, Nina Gribov, Maureen Guillot, Maria Briganti, Valerie Larson, Mike Flynn and other wonderful artists.












Go by the ARTfactory and see this show that is up for another week or so!

See the Creative Brush Show too!
