2019 East of River Distinguished Artists
Anacostia’s art scene is often overlooked in the face of a complicated political and socio-economic landscape. On 8/9/2019, ARCH Development will be going against the grain to highlight two of many Ward 8 based successes. Two Anacostia Artists will receive the 2019 East of River Distinguished Artist Award Presented by Honfleur Gallery and ARCH Development Corporation. This award recognizes artists living East of the Anacostia River for creative excellence as well as for having a significant impact on the cultural landscape of Washington, DC.
