The Open Space Art Gallery is now open in a space once occupied by South Moon Under, at 15000 Potomac Town Center Place near Wegmans. The Prince William Arts Council, in conjunction with the Prince William Art Society, is maintaining the space.
“Stonebridge and JBG Smith [owners of Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center] were happy to have Prince William County Arts Council utilize the space,” spokeswoman Anastasia Pordorski told Potomac Local News. “It had been sitting vacant since the prior tenant vacated in early 2020.”
