With big crowds and record breaking sales the 18th annual Celebration of Fine Art is off to a smashing start. [Continue Reading]
The artists are arriving and building beautiful studios to display their new art. Hammers are flying and saws are running. Paint is drying and carpet is going down.
What does it take to create 100 studios? Artist’s creativity, 3 semi truck loads of lumber, drywall, light fixtures, paint and carpet, installation of ceramic kilns & glass kilns, instillation of life sized sculpture, 4 days of hard work, years of artistic learning and dedication to creating beautiful art, months of putting that talent into individual masterpieces and, TA DA, you have the Celebration of Fine Art.
A special thanks to Tony Maribito and the Home Depot crew for the 3 semi trucks of raw materials!
Yes, as unbelievable as it may seem from the current chaos, we will be ready for you to see the grand opening of the 18th Annual Celebration of Fine Art at 10:00 am on Saturday January 12th, 2008. We look forward to seeing you there. This is truly a place where art lovers and artists connect.
