WHAT: Rock out at Corcoran Uncorked: Heavy Metal!

Grab some drinks and check out a welding demonstration as your favorite heavy metal classics play throughout the night.

American Metal is a retrospective survey of the art of Albert Paley, one of the world’s most distinguished metalsmiths. With dozens of objects in a variety of media, from clay, paper, and cardboard, to steel, glass, and bronze, exhibition visitors will see how Paley’s art has evolved over his innovative 50-year career.
