Princeton Makes To Celebrate 1 Year Anniversary Sept. 18

PRINCETON, NJ — Artist cooperative Princeton Makes will celebrate its one-year anniversary with an Art Celebration open to the public.

The celebration will take place Sept. 18 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Princeton Shopping Center.

Since its inception, Princeton Makes has expanded from 24 to 34 artists from the greater Princeton area, who work across various artistic genres. Currently, 16 artists work from studios in the co-op.

“Princeton Makes has become a real community of artists for all of us who are co-op members. We work together, learn from each other, and just enjoy being part of the same group,” Jessie Lee Kent, a Princeton artist said in a statement.

The anniversary celebration will include various activities for adults and children alike. A few artists will set up outdoors for plein air painting in the courtyard, and others will do art demonstrations in the studios. Face painting and other art activities for children, as well as henna hand painting for all ages, will be available.

The celebration will also feature live music by local musicians and treats from Lillipie’s Bakery and Wildflour Gluten Free Kitchen.
