Reviews
"A wonderful space in the McLean Community Center dedicated to fine art. We recently visited when they were showing large pieces by four women artists that were (largely) made of wood."
"One of our favorite McLean charities. Gallery with local artist, education opportunities for all ages, support for the arts in the community. Included in the LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE video about McLean starring Lizzy Conroy and myself. Karen Briscoe"
"My cousin has come here to display her art exhibit here a couple of times. Great spacious area upstairs to show your artwork and crafts. The staff here are courteous too."
"I exhibited with the Washington Sculptors Group. It was on exhibit for a month. The space is beautiful. They have a theater, gallery, meeting rooms and classes."
"Great local place to expose the children to different types / styles of art and doesn't require driving downtown. Moving to a new location until Fall 2018, though. From the website: "The McLean Projects for the Arts, currently located on the second floor of MCC, will be relocating to their temporary location in the Giant Shopping Center. The storefront is located between CVS and Kazan’s Restaurant. Their official address will be 1446 Chain Bridge Rd., McLean, VA 22101. MCC will continue to handle registration for MPA-sponsored art classes, which will be held at their studio.""
