Update: Upcoming Open Studios/Art Walks

Last weekend, I spent both Saturday and Sunday walking in the rain to see the artists featured at the Somerville Open Studios (SOS). SOS featured over NINETY artists so it was impossible to see each one, but I made valiant efforts to do so with a good friend from law school, Dr. Esq. By the end of the weekend, my feet just ached, and I considered myself fortunate when I was physically capable of walking on Monday.

Yesterday, Dr. Esq and I went to the Fort Point Art Walk. The difference between Open Studios and an Art Walk appears to be the number of artists featured. We started at 12:30 PM and were finished by 4:30, which is a record! It was rainy and windy so we were often the only visitors in the artist's studio.

Next weekend, North Cambridge will have its eighth annual open studios. The weekend of May 21st and 22nd is going to be insane because the Brookline Open Studios and the SoWa Art Walk are scheduled for the same days and time. The East Boston Open Studios is scheduled on June 4th and 5th from 12-6PM.

Remember, you don't have to buy anything or know anything about art so get out there, wear some walking shoes and start exploring your neighborhood!
