ALEXANDRIA, VA – On August 12, three Virginia art agencies, the City of Alexandria, Arlington County, and Fairfax County, announced the creation of Northern Virginia Local Art Agencies (NVLAA). This new agency will expand the resources and opportunities for artists and arts organizations throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area.
NVLAA is made up of staff from the Alexandria Office of the Arts, Arlington Cultural Affairs Office and ArtsFairfax. The organization’s goals are to offer artists and arts organizations throughout the Northern Virginia region a series of free professional development workshops and networking opportunities.
“As local arts agencies, we work to meet artists and organizations they work in professionally,” says a representative from NVLAA. “Northern Virginia artists travel, create and perform throughout the region, and Northern Virginia Local Arts Agencies expand on community building to help artists make new connections and learn new skills.”
This fall, NVLAA will launch with four virtual workshops. All workshops are available free of charge and require advance registration. To register for an NVLAA workshop, visit NVLAAfall2022.eventbrite.com.
