Art has the power to transform, inspire, and unite. In Norfolk’s NEON District, this transformation is already underway. In alignment with The Chrysler’s Perry Glass Studio Grand Reopening Weekend, The d’Art Center is taking a bold step forward to invigorate The NEON District and unite Norfolk’s art scene with The 2025 NFK Glass Circuit Event (learn more about the event here).
This exhibit will be part of the circuit and will include work from both emerging and established artists connected with the Chrysler’s Perry Glass Studio, as well as works from The Perry Glass Collection.
