Open Studio : Providence, RI

With rain predicted off and on for Saturday, September 24th, Providence, Rhode Island is just a tankful away from Boston and the place where Whitmore Boogaerts will be hosting Open Studios at his sculpture studio located at 89 Bellevue Avenue. He has invited 10 of his artist friends to share his space to make this day a real event where a customer can meet the artist, talk about the work and purchase directly.  Open 10 to 5.  Free admission and ample parking.

Here's what you'll find:

Whitmore Boogaerts

Jim Bush

Misa Galazzi

Lisa WB Walker

Adam Carriuolo

Cali Almy

AND MORE: 

Jennifer Rashleigh, Susan Brooklyn, Mike Bryce, Wayne Marcus, and David Michel

How does this relate to food and pottery? This is a local group of artists, some of whom work in clay, like myself.  We bring local fare to share with each other, chat about art, share recipes and discuss how our art imitates the life we live as creative individuals. It's all about the relationship between art and how we use it to make the world a better place.
