Last Day to See DCist Exposed
Need something to do on this cold, dreary day? Please go see DCist Exposed at Long View Gallery (1234 9th Street NW) right off the Mt. Vernon Square metro stop. Today is the last day the exhibit is open, so swing on by between now and 5 p.m. While you're there, be sure to pick up a copy of the 5th Anniversary magazine for the discounted price of $25. And as usual, admittance into the gallery is free.
Tonight: DCist Exposed Panel Discussion at Long View Gallery
Remember to join us tonight for the Emerge Exposed panel discussion. Pink Line Project hosts this event for those who want to learn more about supporting local arts -- you'll be able to listen to and ask questions of a knowledgable group of artists and collectors answer questions about seeking out and buying art. This year, art dealer Catriona Fraser and photographer Tom Wolffe will join moderator Philippa Hughes.
DCist Exposed: Fifth Year Opens at Long View Gallery
Once more, with feeling: night two of our official DCist Exposed Photography Show opening was as great as the first. Roughly 1,200 people came out over both evenings to see the work of our winning photographers, and hopefully had an easier, no-waiting-in-line, more breathable time doing so by splitting it up over two nights.
Arts Agenda
>> Belgian artist Hans Op de Beeck explores our problematic relationships with time, space, and each other through a wide variety of artistic media, including sculpture, painting, drawing, installation, photography, video, animated film and short story writing. He discusses his recent work, including his video Staging Silence, which is playing in the Black Box Theater. Tonight, 7 p.m. in the Ring Auditorium at the Hirshhorn.

Over 500 of you came out last night to the first of two opening receptions for our fifth annual DCist Exposed Photography Show. If you didn't make it, luckily Brian Allen was there to capture the scene.

D.C., are you ready to be received? Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that this evening marks the first of two opening receptions for the fifth annual DCist Exposed Photography Show. While advance tickets for tonight's event are sold out (and only a handful remain for Wednesday), there will be a limited number of $15 door tickets available each night, based around Long View Gallery's maximum occupancy. (Please note that those with advance tickets will have priority admission.) A huge tip of the hat is due to the show's sponsors -- Yuengling, Ten Miles Square and The Pink Line Project.
DCist Exposed Special Event: Emerge Exposed
One of the goals we've developed for the DCist Exposed Photography Show is creating a casual venue to explore art. This is both for new artists who are finding their footing as photographers, as well as new art enthusiasts, who feel comfortable enjoying the classics in D.C.'s many museum collections, but may be unsure where to start when it comes to supporting the arts locally. We want Exposed to be a great avenue to start your art collection – by offering artwork featuring something you love (a piece of D.C.) at a relatively low price point, allowing new patrons to support new artists.

Only a week to go until the second opening reception night for DCist Exposed! Just like the first night, DJ Sequoia will be providing the tunes, Yuengling the beers, and our talented photographers the art. Make sure you grab your tickets now.

Reminder: Get Your Tickets for DCist Exposed
Are you guys excited? With just over a week to go until the opening of the Fifth DCist Exposed Photography Show, we're ready to rock. Two nights of fun (March 15 and 16, 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.), fantastic photography, and a great bunch of photographers. Even your favorite DCist writers will be there, pouring drinks and chatting it up as DJ Sequoia spins some tunes. In addition to all that, we're proud to announce that Yuengling, America's oldest brewery, is sponsoring the show and providing lots of tasty beverages.
DCist Exposed Magazine: On Sale Now
Featuring over 100 photographers and nearly 200 winning images of Washington, D.C., the 5th Anniversary Special Edition DCist Exposed Magazine has finally hit the digital newsstands.
DCist Exposed Tickets: On Sale Now
As you're all aware by now, the 5th annual DCist Exposed Photography Show will kick off with not one, but two opening nights, March 15 and 16, 6 to 10 p.m. at Long View Gallery. Deciding on two nights wasn't easy and it adds to our expense. But we want this year's experience to be a little less crowded, with space for people to concentrate on what the show is all about: the photography.
This year, we're limiting each night to 500 people – in a 5,000-square-foot space, that should give us all plenty of breathing room, allow the HVAC to keep up and keep the fire marshal nice and happy. And to make this process a little easier and reduce your waiting time at the door, we're selling tickets in advance.
Last Day to Pre-Order Your DCist Exposed Magazine
Update: The project is now closed! Thanks go out to everyone who has supported the project by donating or spreading the word. If you pledged, you'll hear from us soon about your donation reward.
And Now: Your 2011 DCist Exposed Photography Show Winners
If you spend about 10 seconds looking at each picture entered in the DCist Exposed contest, it would take you roughly three hours to make it through the over 1000 images submitted. Each of our judges spent that, and more, and did so gladly.
The DCist Exposed Magazine Project Reached Its Goal!
While our judges are busy going through the 1,000-plus photos submitted to the DCist Exposed Photography contest by yesterday's deadline, we want to offer a huuuuuuge thank you to the whopping 102 people who have so far backed our project to publish a fifth anniversary edition DCist Exposed magazine. Last night, we reached our fundraising goal!
Final Call for DCist Exposed 2011 Entries!
We know some of you had hoped we'd get a snow day today so you could scramble to put your photos in to DCist Exposed, but it was not to be. Tonight's the night -- once we close the Flickr pool at midnight, that's it for this year's entries.
One Week Left To Submit Your Photos for DCist Exposed!
Nice work, folks: over 300 photos have been submitted to the DCist Exposed Flickr pool thus far. For the procrastinators among you, don't forget the deadline is now just one week away!

Celebrating Five Years of Exposed: A Special Anniversary Magazine
We know you're busy finding your best photos to enter into the 2011 DCist Exposed Photography Contest. But we want to take a moment to commemorate not just a new exciting year of Exposed, but that 2011 marks five awesome years of our little photography show. Since 2006, DCist Exposed has featured some of the best local photography out there, showcasing images of Washington, D.C.'s unique culture, produced by the people who live and work here. So DCist, in collaboration with Ten Miles Square, are publishing a special Fifth-Year Anniversary magazine.
Announcing the 2011 DCist Exposed Photography Show
Five. Five whole years. That's the length of time that Exposed has been running -- and we're pretty darn excited about hitting this milestone.
