Seekonk Artist Studio Tour
The newly formed Seekonk Artist Network will hold its first
Seekonk Open Studio Tour on Saturday, October 12th, 12:00 – 7:00 P.M., and Sunday, October 13th,
12:00 – 3:00 P.M
The Open Studio concept allows the public to take a peek into
the world of local working artists.
Visitors can not only see or hear the creative work that is passionately
produced right here in our town, but they can also meet the artist to ask
questions, and to understand the story, motivation, and technique behind their
work.
16 local artists will be represented in the tour, showing at
6 venues in Seekonk, situated on Walker Street, Read Street, West River Street,
and Thompson Drive. Studios will be marked with the Seekonk Open Studio logo on
the mailbox.
There will be paintings, prints, photography, drawings, jigsaw
puzzles, sculpture, pottery, and sea glass jewelry on display and for sale
throughout the weekend. And as a special attraction, two of the venues will be
hosting free musical performances, featuring Guitar Tunes, Broadway Vocals, a
French Cabaret group, and a Renaissance Music Ensemble.
