Studio 659

Join Studio 659 for our annual Halloween exhibit Eligibility and Fees: Open to artists of all ages, and art in any medium will be considered. Each artist may enter up to three pieces for consideration. All work must be completed within the last 2 years and not have been previously shown at Studio 659. All work should be connected to our theme of Halloween, the paranormal, and the spooky. We are a family-friendly gallery, so work should also not be too gory or violent. Members of Studio 659 may submit without fees. Non-members must pay a non-refundable $25 fee to be considered. Submissions: Due Friday, September 20, 2019, through e-mail…

After some unexpected obstacles, we were able to make some pretty awesome Fairy Crowns on Saturday during Pierogi Fest. There are some more pre-made crowns in the Studio window. You can stop by and purchase one to take with you for $10. You can also purchase some of the remaining art from the Live Art Competition. The Whiting/Robertsdale Historical Society will be in the building on Sunday to talk about Al Odlivak, “Whiting’s Norman Rockwell”

Metropollenation is open and ready for submissions! This exhibit is all about the tree that grows in Brooklyn, the weed that grows in your sidewalk, and the trees that separate the north- and south-bound lanes. We want the urban botany, not the sweeping landscapes. Consider also using more metropolitan media to create the pollinated bits. See https://studio659.org/call-for-art for details. Submissions are due July 11. July 12 is our buffer day for those last minute squeeze-ins.
