Back in Time for Daffodils- It's the Open Door Exhibition Season!!

Greetings and Salutations! Happy Springtime! 

I love cocoa and holidays and big fuzzy sweaters as much as the next person, but around mid-February I hit my limit and start seriously considering hibernation as an alternative to Ohio winter.

This is a koala yawning. Your argument is invalid. 

Another late-winter bummer is the absence of exhibitions and openings in our gallery space. True, it's nice to give ourselves time to catch our breath and stock up on new art and ideas. True, it's usually too gross out for anyone to come out to a chilly, evening opening. Still- I missed seeing you guys!

Though things have been quiet around the ol' blog, we at Open Door have been busy as Christmas elves- plotting plots and scheming schemes- all in preparation for our SHINY! SPARKLY!
2013 EXHIBITION SEASON
here just in time for sunshine and violets and baby animals!

"But Cat! I can't wait! I've waited all winter and I need Visionary Art and I need it NOWZA!"

Well then, you're in luck because our first show of the season, This Inspired That, opens this Saturday, April 6th from 5pm to 7pm. 

"OMG YES!"

This Inspired That is a collaborative exhibit featuring Open Door Art Studio and artists from Creative Arts of Women (CAW). For this exhibit each CAW artist selected a piece of art made by an artist from Open Door that inspired them and then used that spark to create a companion piece. Both works are displayed side-by-side in this engaging and exciting exhibit.
