North Adams Open Studios accepting sponsors01:59PM / Friday, September 05, 2008
NORTH ADAMS – North Adams Open Studios, a city-wide celebration of art, is accepting support from sponsors in the city and the greater region. The event will take place Saturday, Oct. 18, and Sunday, Oct. 19, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. There will be an opening celebration on Friday, Oct.17, at Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA).
The event is free and open to the public. Individual and business sponsors are invited to contribute to the success of this event by donating to Northern Berkshire Creative Arts, referencing North Adams Open Studios. Main Street is awash in galleries this year, all of which will participate in Open Studios. Open Studios provides an opportunity for North Adams artists to open their work spaces and invite the public to pass through, taking in the energy and creativity of a city that is increasingly defining itself as a cultural economic center. Large converted industrial spaces, including the Beaver Mill, Eclipse Mill, Windsor Mill, and NoAMA will be open to the public. Downtown storefronts and Heritage State Park also will participate.
In 2007, 86 regional artists participated and over 2,000 members of the public enjoyed their work. This was a 100 percent increase over 2006. This year’s event promises to be even larger and more comprehensive. The thousands of spectators expected to pass through this year’s event will be encouraged to spend time eating and shopping downtown, participating in the continued economic renaissance the region is experiencing.An enthusiastic volunteer committee of local artists, educators and business owners coordinates Open Studios.
The event also is supported by the Cultural Council of Northern Berkshire, a local agency which receives support from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, as well as by the City of North Adams and MASS MoCA. Sponsors to date include: Becks Printing; Coakley, Pierpan, Dolan & Collins Insurance Agency; Cup & Saucer; Inkberry; Dr. Gene Messenger, DMD; The Porches Inn; Photoworks; Charles Phykitt Insurance Agency; and Sue Walker and Steve Green. Restaurants and hotels that donate at a level of $75 or more will be listed in a dining and lodging guide on the NAOS Web site.
