Studio Crawl Preview Release (PDF)
FARGO, N.D. – Plains Art Museum will open the Studio Crawl Preview exhibition on September 2 in anticipation of the FM Visual Artists’ (FMVA) two-day Studio Crawl on Saturday and Sunday, October 2 and 3. The exhibition will offer visitors an early look at many of the featured artists’ work before closing on October 10. Various artists and styles will be represented in the Crawl and in the preview exhibition.
In addition to the Crawl activities, the Museum will host a public meet-and-greet for new curator Megan Arney Johnston on Saturday, October 2, from 10 a.m. to noon during the Museum’s Kid Quest event.
The Studio Crawl was established in 2004 to develop an awareness and appreciation for the quality and diversity of visual arts in the region. During the two-day event, the public is given a chance to go behind the scenes of a working artist’s studio and exposed to dynamic educational experiences that demystify art’s “making” process.
Thirty-two studios will be open for visitation during this year’s crawl. Studio Crawl maps are available at Plains Art Museum, 704 1st Av. N., at www.fmva.us, at area businesses, and from the participating artists.
The FMVA is a recognized 501(c) (3) non-profit organization open to all those interested in supporting local and regional arts. It was established to promote and encourage visual art and artists in the Fargo-Moorhead area.
