Join us for Citizen Joy: A celebration of democracy focused on agency, harmony, and gratitude on Friday, July 26 at 4:30-6pm at Mason Exhibitions Arlington.

This is a family-friendly event that is free and open to the public. During this interactive and experiential event, visitors will be invited to think about what it means to be part of a community that we all have some ability to influence. You’ll share your thoughts and experiences on the democratic process, and explore ways to make an impact and bring your community closer together.

This event is free and open to the public and we encourage guests to RSVP at the following link:

During the event, you will see the current exhibition on view, A Closer Look: Conflicted Art from Ukraine, hear music and poetry, and more! Citizen Joy is a program of Jeff Raz where different sites across the country will have art installations about the joy of participating in the voting process on Saturday, July 27.
