The artists at ArtEast are starting the planning process and that includes Karen and Bob. They’re both working on new projects that you have just got to see, in person come October (unless, of course, they’re already been sold!)

This year’s tour will be held on Oct. 14/15 and 21/22. We’ve already put the order in for beautiful weather and colorful fall leaves. Enough can’t be said for fun this tour brings to all who experience it! So mark your calendars for this event!

 


The anticipated annual ArtmostNY Open Studio Tour is gearing up this spring. 

As in the past, artists will be opening the doors to their studios and letting you in to see the processes they use in creating their art. Conversations with the artists about the tools they use are always enlightening. 

Bob and Karen will both be open for the weekend and demonstrating their talents with working with stone and metal. Both have selected projects that they will be featuring and creating during the weekend with the goal of a nearly completed piece at the end of the day on Sunday. 

Checkout the website, ARTmostNY.com to see what they have planned.

Date: May 6 & 7

Open: 11:00am to 5:00pm both days.
