Open Studios at Western Avenue celebrates the Dog Dayz of Summer

On the first Saturday of every month, Western Avenue Studios & Western Avenue Lofts artists open their doors to the public. Come take a peek inside their work spaces and see for yourself why Western Avenue is the creative soul of Lowell.

We are celebrating the Dog Dayz of Summer with a special shout out to our artists that love painting the four legged creatures we share our lives with. (No diss to the felines out there – you can find them featured in artwork too!!) Open Studios is a day to chat with artists about their creative process, find out about classes, and order a portrait of Fido!

The Loading Dock Gallery hosts its’ opening reception for the gallery’s new show “Funky Book Show” from 4-6pm. Artists feature innovative and creative ways of fashioning a book.

What else happens on an OS Saturday? Chez Rafiki’s food truck will be ready for action from noon – 8pm for each OS. Navigation Brewing is open from 2-10pm.

Western Avenue is a complex of four buildings of artist studios and loft residences that number over 350 artists. We think that makes us the largest artist community at least on the East Coast – right here in Lowell MA!
