Exhibitions in
​The Brock Gallery

There is always new art gracing the walls of the Brock Gallery!  Here you will find the best that local and regional artists have to offer.  Each month a new exhibition theme will take you into the minds of the artists and how they interpret the world around them.

While you visit, pick up our self-guided Art Talk to help you and your friends as you view and assess the art.  
Changing monthly themes guarantee that you'll find fresh and new eye candy each time you visit!

​Join us on the First Friday of each month for the opening receptions.  You'll meet and chat with artists, listen to the juror and get the insider's experience of art in Virginia Beach.  Use the exhibition calendar below to plan your First Fridays for the rest of the year!
