Explore the artistic riches of New Haven at Artspace's City-Wide Open Studios. Visual artists from across Connecticut are opening their doors at studios and temporary spaces around the city over three weekends in October 2012. Start at the central hub exhibition at Artspace to see one representative work from each participating artist. Look for special crystal-themed art and events celebrating the crystal anniversary of CWOS.
Free and open to the public, CWOS is a wonderful opportunity to see artists at work and buy affordable art directly from them.
