Hyattsville, MD—Pyramid’s gallery will be tiled with over 250 pieces of original artwork donated to Pyramid by artists who love the nonprofit art center. This exhibition-slash-fundraiser has just two rules: all work must measure 10 x 10 inches and be priced at $50. In addition to a timed-entry opening day and public hours thereafter, for the first time in this show’s 6-year history, the work will also be part of an online gallery for viewing and purchase.
10×10 opens Saturday, November 14th to the public by appointment from 12- 6 pm. Works will be available to view in an online gallery starting Sunday, November 15th and the public is welcome during gallery hours without appointment through January 3, 2021.
The exhibition is free, and gallery hours are Wed–Thu, 10–8 pm, Fri–Sat, 10–6 pm, and Sunday 12–5pm. Masks are required for entry and we are limiting the number of visitors to comply with social distancing best practices.

Now in its 6th year, the 10×10 is a great opportunity for collectors of all levels to get interesting pieces by talented artists at a remarkable price. Prints, drawings, paintings, and mixed media will be on display and buyers can have instant gratification as purchased works can be taken home immediately. “I’m thrilled by the turnout and support,” remarks Artistic Director Gretchen Schermerhorn. “Having so many talented artists say yes during the current pandemic and political crisis is a testament to how much artists are willing to support institutions they care about. I am thankful for the nominating committee which included Alonzo Davis, Deborah Grayson, Bronwyn King, and Risikat “Kat” Okedeyi for pulling together such an impressive roster of seasoned and emerging artists.”
