Facing You

Dec. 19, 2020 to February 28, 2021

A Portraits Show

All New!

A Virtual BGA Exhibit
Featuring Work by Over 60 Artists
www.VirtualBGA.Org

In response to the Belmont Gallery of Art’s temporarily closing due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we decided to create a virtual gallery space that would allow the BGA to continue to curate and display art and support artists during these uncertain times. FACING YOU: A Portraits Show is the first exhibit we’ve put together in this new online format. It was a process—with a bit of a learning curve and many hours spent building the site—but the Virtual BGA is now ready to launch.

Thank you to all the FACING YOU participating artists and the community for your continued support of the BGA and its programs.
