Proudly led by Verge Center for the Arts and known as the region’s oldest, largest and most prestigious open studio program for local artists, the highly anticipated Sac Open Studios 2018 officially kicks off with a launch party followed by special open studio opportunities scheduled over the next two weekends!
To help kick-off the event, the free Sac Open Studios Launch Party will be held at Verge Center for the Arts and will include live art in action, entertaining live music, hands-on children’s activities, food and beverages for purchase, and the opportunity to mix, mingle, and network with the thriving local artist community. The launch event will also mark the opening of Verge Center for the Art’s fall exhibition (with video and installations by Yoshie Sakai) titled “KOKO’s Love: The Technicolor Unfairy Tale Ball” that runs through October.
Sac Open Studios will showcase nearly 250 artists and approximately 75 studios throughout the region. New this year, the popular annual event has expanded beyond Sacramento County to include participating artists and studios in West Sacramento and Yolo County. Throughout the month of September, the community is encouraged to take self-guided tours and participate in special exhibitions, events, workshops, performances, and parties where they have the opportunity to meet local artists, view artistry in action and gain new appreciation for the creativity of talented local artists. Additionally, this unique event provides an opportunity for interested community members to see works of art and many studios that are not normally available for public viewing.
