Join us as we welcome Norfolk, Virginia based artist, David Freeman for his solo exhibition at our Offsite Gallery at MacArthur Center.

David Freeman has a desire “that burns inside my soul to share my personal ideas of beauty to the world through positive illustrations that represent peace, hope and joy.” Freeman aims to create art for all and hopes to unify viewers of all nationalities and backgrounds while improving society from an artistic point of view. The ideal of this philosophy motivates him to create mixed media paintings and murals using a unique, surreal method that incorporates a bit of abstraction.

Freeman began his artistic journey as a child, drawing comic book characters and landscapes. He attended the Art Institute of Dallas where he discovered a love for cubist and expressionist art. Freeman has created murals at Virginia Wesleyan University, Lynnhaven Elementary, the Virginia Beach African American Cultural Center, the VIBE District and more. He was selected to exhibit at the Jamestown Museum in 2024 and has been invited to share his art in several local galleries in the Hampton Roads area.

On view through May 1, 2026. Free and open to the public every day, 10am-7pm Monday-Thursday, Friday and Saturday, until 8pm and Sunday 12-6pm.
