Open Studio Weekend 2010 – May 29 & 30, 2010
"Uphill Farm"
Most Vermont craftspeople work in studios located in or close to their residences. These are places of production and inspiration located in downtowns as well as at the ends of dirt roads. Wherever their locations, they are exciting places to visit because they reflect the dynamic yet organized process that is used to produce the finished work of art.
For the fifth year, I’ll be participating in the Vermont Craft Councils’ Open Studio Weekend. My studio as well as 235 studios will be open from 10am – 5pm both Saturday and Sunday, May 29 & 30. It’s an pleasure to welcome folks into the studio to talk about my work, material, process or any thing else that might come up.
Open Studio Weekend is a statewide celebration of the visual arts and the creative process. Bennington County, Vermont is home to many fine artists and artisans including the other members of The Artisans of Southern Vermont. The other twenty-nine members of the group will also have their studios open this weekend. The fine work represented by this group includes other paintings, jewelery, pottery, furniture, sculpture, and more.
The studio itself is enormously informative because you can see at a glance how the artist works. You see the swatches that have not been chosen for the quilt or the work that is experimental or not serious enough for the gallery. Buying or ordering work during an Open Studio sale is a unique experience because you have the opportunity to speak to the artist directly.
