Rose Jaffe: Vessel: To Hold and be Held

Thu, May 28, 2026
Price not available

Rose Jaffe, an interdisciplinary artist whose practice spans printmaking, sculpture, painting, and illustration, presents a solo exhibition titled *Vessel: To Hold and be Held* at the Goethe-Institut Washington. Best known for her mural work—with over 50 murals created nationally and internationally, including more than 40 across the DC metro area—Jaffe brings vibrant, layered compositions to walls, paper, and public spaces. The exhibition explores themes of containment, connection, and the interplay between vessel and content. Visitors are invited to an opening reception and artist talk to engage directly with the artist and her creative process.

Showtimes: The reception and artist talk are the only public program listed; the exhibition itself is presumably on view during the Goethe-Institut’s regular hours, though those hours are not provided.

Tickets: Registration is available via Eventbrite (the page is from an Eventbrite listing), but no ticket price is mentioned; the event may be free or require a paid reservation.

Lineup: The featured artist is Rose Jaffe, who will give an artist talk during the reception.

Run time: The reception and artist talk run for two hours, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
