Attention Open Studio Attendees…

for the month of february, open studio will be scheduled for MONDAYS ONLY at the regular time.
after february, open studio will become more spontaneous.  we’ll be taking it off the schedule, so please be aware that if you show up at our regular monday and thursday times, the door may not be open!

we’re looking forward to some great changes in 2010.

what to expect:

lots of fun at studio e
lots of spontaneous hanging out and art-making
more one-off events as opposed to highly planned event series
fewer programs, more projects.
lots more opportunities for you to get involved… maybe the next big idea will be yours!

what not to expect:

an open door at exactly the same day and time every week

how to participate:

artists with project ideas are still always welcome to submit proposals.  helpful guidelines for artists interested in receiving funding for an arts project in or around west norwood will be posted soon. in the meantime, contact us for the scoop.

parents of children who have enjoyed the regular access to studio e but require more consistency of schedule should contact us to discuss organizing a parent-run studio schedule for younger students.  we have the resources to support an initiative of this sort, but need more support from parents in order to commit to this as an ongoing event.  parents willing to take ownership are invited to contact us.

for 2010, we’ll be less programatic in our approach. instead, we’ll be focusing on special events and new initiatives.  we’ll still be around the studio a lot, and those of you who are here the most know when and how to find us.  if you want to arrange a session in the studio, contact us directly and we’d be happy to organize it.

studio e remains open to the community, we’ll be keeping it cozy and stocked with supplies, and if you’re willing to help with planning and supervision, we can even supply artists and and some administration for your arts-related projects.

in the meantime, if the lights are on or the sign is out then the door is probably open.  join us!
