Cultural-hub domination

The grand-opening ceremony of the Warehouse Artist Lofts on the R Street Corridor was held back in April, and it recently hosted a rooftop concert with Appetite and Poppet. The cultural-hub domination and general buzz about this artist-centered mixed-use development continues with its inaugural WAL Public Market art show. Curated by Trisha Rhomberg, former co-owner of Bows & Arrows, the succinctly named First Show includes brightly colored pop-culture-influenced illustrations by Navid Dehghan (who is a WAL resident), watercolor landscapes by Erwo, mixed-media wall sculptures by Stephanie Wickizer, and B-movie inspired paintings by Bekah Wilson.
