Open Art Studio
Aug 20 @ 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Open Studio

Looking for some time to focus on your art?  Members can utilize the AAO facilities to participate in a non-structured creative environment with the potential to collaborate with others who share their medium of choice, information sharing, art talk, learning a bit about others’ mediums, building an art community, and overall artistic enrichment. This is not a formal class as members are expected to work independently.

No cost, just bring your own supplies and do your own art!

Participants must bring their own supplies, drop cloths, tablecloths, or whatever is necessary to protect the studio from spills.  For the safety of all, no noxious chemicals such as turpentine, markers, or mediums that create a lot of dust, or fixatives will be allowed. Odorless mineral spirits (OMS) are permitted if kept in a sealed container of no more than 2 ounces.  Members will also be responsible for leaving their work area as they found it. Any rags with OMS should be removed from the building by the member and disposed of properly at their homes.

Participants under the age of 18 must have their parent’s permission.
