The "Gowanus
Artists Open Studio Tour" takes place Oct. 27 and 28 from
1 to 6 pm. Take this opportunity to get to know 40 of your artistic
neighbors – including Dale Williams, whose accordion fold book,
"Mercy Street 2 Area Code 911," is pictured.
(Williams’ studio is located at the Gowanus Art Building, 295
Douglass St. at Third Avenue, second floor.)
Need another reason? It’s never too early to start shopping for
the holidays – especially when you don’t have to pay the gallery’s
commission, notes Regina McFadden, spokesperson for the Gowanus
Studio Tour.
Tour maps are available on line at www.gowanusartists.com, at
the Gowanus Art Building and at these restaurants: New College
Cafe (Fourth Avenue at Union Street), Rose Water (787 Union St.
at Fifth Avenue), Halcyon (227 Smith St. at Butler Street), and
Los Pollitos (148 Fifth Ave. at Douglass Street). For more information,
call (718) 638-7451.
