Art at the Mill Fall Art Show with PWAS
Every year, artists in Virginia look forward to their local 'art season(s)' which are usually early spring and again in the fall up to Christmas. Artist's Inboxes fill with Calls for Art and they make the decisions on which shows will work for their schedules, their artworks, and agendas. The emails from Clark County for the biannual Art at the Mill Art Show held at the Burwell Morgan Mill are much anticipated by some of the members of the Prince William Art Society too!

PWAS Members Entering AATM
You can search this blog for "Art at the Mill" and read the numerous blog posts and many pictures I've taken of this art show held in a LIVE working mill.
It is an honor just to be accepted to show at the Mill and many of the PWAS members have urged other art group members that even if they don't enter the show, to at least go SEE it, for goodness sake! And they have the show twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall. Just think about this:
Art at the Mill juries in about 1,000 artworks from about 300 artists, for each show.
This year's Fall Show begins on Saturday, September 20 and goes through Sunday, October 5, 2025. Their hours are Sundays through Fridays 12-5 and Saturdays 10-5. The artist's reception is Sunday, September 28, from 2-5. The address to plug into your GPS/Google Maps is 15 Tannery Lane, Millwood, VA. From Lakeridge, here in Woodbridge...that's about 57 miles and about 1 hour and 12 minutes to drive.
"Over the river and through the woods, to Millwood, VA we go!"
Here are some PWAS members that will be trekking to Burwell Morgan to drop off their artworks soon.

Congratulations too all!
And because Art at the Mill processes their art shows through ArtCall.org (https://artatthemillfall2025.artcall.org/), on the day of or just before, the art gallery online will become available online alphabetically by artists and you can literally watch almost live, as items sell for the duration of the show. Pretty cool, right. And sell - yes, a lot of art does sell. Let's hope our art does too!
