We are excited to announce that Urban Decay will be entering its fourth year of exhibition at the Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton, Virginia. Urban Decay 4 celebrates low brow and contemporary art and music. Emerging talents are showcased alongside accomplished artists with a special focus on the Vinyl toy scene. PONSHOP will be one of the sponsors in this 2-month long exhibit and we look forward to celebrating with you all during the opening event on Saturday, June 8 from 7-11pm.
