ASMP Philly is proud to announce a Community Partnership with Philadelphia Open Studio Tours. POST is Philadelphia's largest tour of artists' studios. Every year during the first two weekends in October, hundreds of professional visual artists in every Philadelphia neighborhood open their studios to the public.
ASMP Philadelphia is offering space to our members to show their work at The Rotunda October 2nd and 3rd from noon to 6 PM each day. Space is offered on a first come, first served basis for a nominal fee of $10.00 per ASMP member to help cover costs. Members are entirely responsible for their exhibit (set up, tear down, and staffing during hours of the tour). This is an excellent opportunity to expose your work to hundreds of arts patrons in the metropolitan area!
Contact Lynnette Mager Wynn, lynwyn@comcast.net or 215-514-4866 for more information and to reserve a space.
