New Studio!
I am moving my art studio from Steve’s basement to The Building on R Street, Sacramento, upstairs from the Fox & Goose Pub and the Solomon Dubnick Gallery (in the Art Foundry space). Julie Didion put out a call for someone to share her studio space and I answered. If you know The Building you will know that her space is primo! lovely! light-filled and well located. I will be there from now to the end of the year. I will be in the studio working Saturdays (10:30 a.m. to 3: 30 p.m. ) and Sundays ( 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. ), so please stop by when you are in the neighborhood. I will also be working there on days during the week – yet to be determined. Call ahead if you would like to visit. The Building, 1021 R Street, Sacramento.
Enjoy the pix below of the spaces and the many other shops in The Building — Rumpelstiltskin Yarn Store (yarnyarnyarn.com), Solomon Dubnick Gallery (sdgallery.com), Tea Cozy (tea-cozy.net), Arareity (arareity.com), and more! Good reasons for visiting The Building.
And, the artists in their studios in The Building: Merle Axelrad Serlin, Lisa Fernald Barker, Taylor Gutermute, Anthony Montanino, Brenda Boles, Sally Shapiro, Richard Zbignew Kozikowski, Andy Graham and others.
