Opening Reception, “Resonance: The Ties That Bond”

“Resonance: The Ties That Bond” by the Onyx Art Group
January 31, 2025 – March 8, 2026
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 7, 5-7 PM
Hosted by the Prince William County Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
The ARTfactory is proud to present Resonance: The Ties That Bond, an immersive exhibition by the Onyx Art Group, on view from January 31, 2025, through March 8, 2026. This dynamic show invites visitors to explore the profound emotional power of art and the universal connections it forges.
Resonance: The Ties That Bond brings together a thoughtfully curated selection of works that illuminate the deep currents of feeling that flow between artist and viewer. Designed to provoke introspection, empathy, and shared understanding, the exhibition reveals art’s unique ability to transcend barriers—cultural, emotional, and experiential. Each piece operates as a connective vessel, offering audiences an opportunity to engage in a collective emotional journey.
Founded in 2023, the Onyx Art Group represents a vibrant tapestry of creativity, uniting artists whose diverse perspectives and cultural influences enrich their collaborative vision. The collective is dedicated not only to showcasing individual artistic excellence but also to sparking meaningful dialogue through innovative visual expression. Their work resonates broadly, inviting viewers into conversations that extend beyond the gallery walls.
