Four galleries hosted open houses during Occoquan's Art on the Block event on May 12.
Photographs of dining patrons transformed by digital paint colors; layers of beeswax mixed with resin and oil colors; a representation of death and hope captured in a single white balloon—these gallery pieces were among hundreds on display for Occoquan’s Art on the Block.

What should go in this vacant Lake Ridge building?
In our last Vision for Vacancies, we asked what you thought should go in the former Woodbridge Bloom location. With such a sizeable pad site, suggestions leaned towards an indoor skating facility for all ages. What about this location? It's in Lake Ridge's Dillingham Square across the street from Blockbuster video store, and next to Palm Beach Tan. It used to be the site of Burke Electronics, before the locally-owned business moved to the County Center area off of Marblestone Drive. So, what do you think should go in this building? Take our Patch poll and tell us in the comments!
