Artspace is pleased to announce that City Wide Open Studios 2012 will run October 5-22nd. The first weekend will feature private studios, the second weekend will feature Erector Square and the third weekend will be devoted to an alternative space. For our 15th year, an anniversary often associated with gifts of crystal, we are launching our first ever CWOS with a thematic imprint. Artists will be encouraged to showcase work informed or inspired by all manifestations and uses of crystal. Our 2012 call for entry will be available here in mid July.
