Benicia Artists Open Studios

Each year the community of artists and artisans in the East Bay city of Benicia welcome visitors to experience an Open Studios event the first weekend of May. This year, the Open Studios event, sponsored by Arts Benicia (a non-profit visual arts organization, gallery and arts education center), will take place Saturday and Sunday, May 1 and 2. This is a unique opportunity to meet with artists in their studios and home workspaces to see new and exciting works of art. More than 70 studios will be open to the public for those two days, as visitors are afforded a rare opportunity to talk personally with artists whose work they admire and to see their favorite – or soon-to-be favorite – artists at work.

For more information about the Open Studios event, please call Arts Benicia at (707) 747-0131, e-mail info [at] artsbenicia.org, or visit http://www.artsbenicia.org. Images of various artists’ work are available upon request.
