For many local artists and art enthusiasts, the annual Patrons' Show, hosted by The Art League, is a highlight of the year. Described as part block party, part fundraiser, The Patrons' Show is a unique opportunity to view and purchase locally made art, while supporting a great cause. This year marks the 50th anniversary of The Patrons' Show and Robinson Landing is proud to be a sponsor of the event.
"Celebrating its 50th year, The Art League's Patrons' Show is a beloved annual tradition for many artists and art collectors throughout the DC area and beyond. It's amazing to see hundreds of ticket-holders so engaged and excited about art, for artists to so generously donate their work, and for volunteers to give their time...all in support of The Art League! It's truly a one-of-a-kind event and experience."
- Erica Fortwengler
