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!

Once the pandemic allows, plan to attend our First Friday 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!

PURPLE HAZE                            January 8 - 31                 
It’s a rich, deep mysterious color. On the 2nd Anniversary of painting our building purple, all art within will contain our signature color in some way.

FABULOUS FORGERIES             February 5 - 28               
Is the art a copy of a Masterpiece or a new creation in the same style? Perhaps it’s a copy with a twist that surprises or amuses. See which great Masters our artists choose.

BELIEVE, DREAM, INSPIRE       March 5 - 28                   
Come see what inspires our artists, what they dream of. You may find similarities or fascinating differences from your own. Elementary students will also interpret this theme and their art will hang beside the adults. (Call to Artists)

THE 757                                       April 2 - May 2               
In and about our area code are so many subjects artists can present. All of Hampton Roads – and more – provide inspiration for wide-ranging interpretations.   (Call to Artists available soon)

FROM THE EARTH                      May 7 - 30                     
Anything born of dirt or clay is part of this tribute to nature, pottery and horticulture.  (Call to Artists available soon)

H2O                                               June 4 - 27                     
A Mid-Atlantic Regional exhibition that reflects our relationship to water. From a single drop to mighty oceans, from rising mists to stormy skies, water is all around us – and up to 78% of our bodies!  (Call to Artists available soon)

A SHOW OF HEADS                      July 2 - Aug 1                 
Heads may mean more than portraits – head of cabbage, head of a nail, head of the class. But mostly, it means portraits.  (Call to Artists available soon)

ABSTRACTLY SPEAKING            August 6 - 29                  
It’s all about color, all about design, all about emotion. But definitely not about realism!

GLOBETROTTING                        September 3 - 26              
Art inspired by travel and cultures around the world. Artists reveal works that reflect Europe, China, Machu Picchu … or Pungo. Any place you may have been or wanted to go.  (Call to Artists available soon)

PRACTICE WHAT YOU TEACH   October 1 - 31                 
Active and retired Virginia Art Teachers have a rare chance to show off their own artwork. A statewide expression of loving what you teach.  (Call to Artists available soon)
