EVER WONDER WHAT AN ARTIST’S STUDIO REALLY LOOKS LIKE?
Here’s your chance to get a look behind the scenes. Take a self-guided tour and meet artists where they live and work. Many artists and craftspeople will open their studios for two consecutive fall weekends.
The Studio Tour is completely free of charge. You’ll get a chance to meet directly with the artists, and often see work not shown in gallery settings. You’ll visit the working spaces of both established and emerging artists, from basements to self contained studios.
OPENING RECEPTION

12pm - 4pm
Explore acrylic paint possibilities with Vera Kisseleva. In her work she uses bold, vibrant colors and expressive brush strokes. During this workshop, Vera will share with you some of her painting techniques that she uses to create her own work.
A quick demonstration will give you the opportunity to see the whole process of creating a landscape painting from the beginning to the end. During this workshop you will have time to practice, explore and then create your own one of a kind artwork.
You can bring your own reference photos or choose from the artist's collection.
