Free public studio tour and sale reminds us artists live next door
The West of Main Art Walk is turning 30 this year.
Over 60 participating artists will be taking part in Vancouver’s longest running open studio tour and sale on May 27-28 (11 a.m. – 5 p.m.).
From Point Grey to Main Street, and from Granville Island to 41st Avenue, acclaimed and emerging artists will be on hand to talk about their work and offer up pieces, including painting, pottery, photography, and fabric, for sale at this free event.
The West of Main Art Walk is the work of the organization Artists in Our Midst. Co-founded in 1993 by Pnina Granirer and Anne Adams, the organization is made up of artists dedicated to bringing public awareness to art created in the community.
“In 1993, when the event began, the only places where people could see art were the Vancouver Art Gallery and some private galleries,” said Granirer via email.
