“Rhythm of the Stage”, at the Gallery at the Attucks is a juried exhibition by Nyree Dowdy, Art Bridges Curatorial Fellow of the Chrysler Museum of Art. Over 40 original works of art by 25 artists with a connection to Hampton Roads in response to the themes of movement, pattern, and performance were selected by Dowdy. Artwork installed by Dorothy Coakley.

Gallery opens one hour prior to all performances so patrons may view the exhibitions.
