“Activation 2719” opens this Saturday, February 20 at No Kings Collective, a new artist collective and gallery at 2719 13th Street NW. Hours are 6 to 11 p.m. with live entertainment.

Get ongoing dates and times for the gallery at their Web site.

From No Kings: “Activation 2719 is a rare opportunity for the artist to curate themselves, with themes that reflect their own personal style and background. Artists were asked to produce ‘site specific’ small collections of work to best be reflective of what makes their work both current and cutting edge.

“The range of works, genres, and mediums within Activation 2719 are as diverse as the artist themselves. These artists are contemporary in their niche while also pushing boundaries in art, both local and nationally. The common thread of these artists is their instantly recognizable use of intense color and topics within in their works, from the dynamic clean duct tape works and installations of artist Bryan Rojsuontikul to the graphic pen style and social commentary seen within the work of Aniekan Udofia. Activation 2719 promises to be unforgettable merger of style and character. “
