March Second Saturday

Second Saturday Events:

Curve Studios and Garden
9 Riverside Dr.
10 am – 5pm
Curve Studios, home to twelve working artists, is celebrating March Second Saturday with extended studio hours. This month we feature long-time Rada member, Pattiy Torno, who will be doing an installation on one of our exterior walls. Drawing from the foto exploration she calls “Fotopieicings”, artist Pattiy Torno will construct a fotopiecing installation on an exterior wall here @ CURVE studios entitled “SELF”.  This project is inspired by all the subway wheat paper paste and poster imagery she loved from her time living in New York City, employing many images from her current shadow series. Please feel free to drop in to see the progress. 10 am to 5 pm or when it is finished, weather permitting!

NorthLight Studios

11 am – 4pm
In this month of March, the transitional month of the year, we see changes from winter into spring. Our six artists are inspired as we acknowledge our personal transitions that have brought us to this studio space.
Two of us have recently transitioned from home studios to join NorhtLight Studios in the River Arts District. One of our artists now works in her very successful style because her health did not allow her to continue in a previous style. One artist transitioned from photography and abstract work to build a very recognizable body of work. Two artists left NYC to find a place for their talents in Asheville. Come by and say hello and tell us about your important transitions. We’d love to hear. NorthLight Artists:  Angela Alexander, Wendy Whitson, Bill George, Bernadette St. Pierre-George, Sandy Lear, Nan Davis
