Meet our building resident artists, see hallway guest artist exhibitions by Tracy Frein and Gregory J. Matthews, enjoy complimentary beverages and refreshments in the studios and try the delicious fare from the food truck outside! Our open studio events are family friendly and free to the public!

The building opens their doors to the public only four times a year. At this Spring event, come explore two full floors of working artist studios, and have a chance to purchase artwork and hand-made crafts directly from the people who made them. Over fifty local artists and artisans work in this former ice-house, including sculptors, painters, photographers, ceramic artists, print-makers, jewelry designers, textile artisans, and much more.
