WEST HARTFORD, CT — A West Hartford artist whose work has been commissioned by major musical acts, including the Grateful Dead, Foo Fighters and Black Sabbath, is inviting the public into his studio later this month.
AJ Masthay, an internationally known printmaker and gig poster artist, will host an open studio Saturday, Nov. 14, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 252 Park Road in West Hartford.
The event will give artists, art enthusiasts, and collectors an opportunity to explore Masthay's prints, view new artwork and see the space where he creates his designs.
Visitors will also have an opportunity to meet Masthay and learn more about his work.
Masthay has created artwork for numerous musical artists and festivals, including the Grateful Dead, Goose, Foo Fighters, Black Sabbath, the Telluride Bluegrass Festival and the Newport Jazz Festival.
His work was also recently featured in a two-person exhibition at the Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury.
Masthay's upcoming open studio will provide a chance for local residents to see his work outside a traditional gallery or museum setting.
The event will feature new works alongside examples of his printmaking and poster art.
