Artworks Salida Studio Tour is September 9th and 10th

Twenty-two of the area’s most prominent artists will open their studios to visitors for ArtWorks’ FREE Salida Studio Tour, Fri. Sept. 9 from 11 am to 7 pm, and Sat. Sept. 10 from 10 am to 6 pm.

You can get a rare, inside peek at the working studios of:  PJ Bergin, Dave Blakeslee, Nate Calderon, Suzanne Cocovinis, Jack Chivvis, Lynn DeCew, Jimmy Descant, Linda Frances, Fay Golson, Tammy Grubisha, Judith Hilmer, Fred Hubicki, Dvora Kanegis, Sally Mather, Amy Rahe, Mark Rittman, Bea Strawn, Mel Strawn, Cheryl Tischer, Brice Turnbull, Gil Van Stone, and Patty Vincent.

Sponsored by Salida ArtWorks, the tour is free and open to everyone.  During the tour, bright turquoise signs and balloons will spotlight  participating studios.

Free maps of all the studio locations are avail- able at local galleries, the Chamber of Commerce, SalidaArtWorks.com, and Facebook/SalidaArt- Works. You can visit any or all of the studios at your own pace, chat with the artists, and see where and how they work. Most of the artists also will have specially priced original work available for purchase. The tour is being widely advertised, and is expected to attract crowds of art enthusiasts and buyers from throughout the region.

ArtWorks’ inaugural Salida Studio Tour was in 2009; and in 2010 it was decided to alternate between Salida and Buena Vista. Next year’s tour will be in BV; and the next Salida Studio Tour won’t be until 2013…so don’tcha dare miss this one! Anyone interested in carpooling for the Tour, contact Lori Boydston at tiredhouse@ yahoo.com.
