​In the midst of Colorado's stay-at-home order in early March 2020, local artists continued to create. The artworks from this time capture the impacts of the pandemic on individuals and communities, portraying isolation, adaptation, change,  connection, distance, and closures.
Recognizing this outpouring of creativity from artists across Colorado, the Arvada Center asked for submissions of artwork created during the state’s response to the pandemic. Open from March - October 2020, the call garnered over 1,000 submissions of work from across the state. This exhibition showcases 259 works by 168 artists, offering a comprehensive overview with works of all mediums, subject matters, and processes.

Viral Influence is at the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities May 20- August 22, 2021
