Making a living doing your art.... 

A.R.C.'s Open Studio event, held November 21, 22, 23 is one of two annual opportunities for public access to the center. This year, the event reflects on the working artist at ARC, their projects in the community, and will share what goes on in the studio- the nuts and bolts of producing the work in "The work of Art".

Many are often full of questions about how a particular technique was produced in various creative fields or the art trades, and, how do the artists do what they love and make a living at it?
This season's event opens the doors of twenty one participating Artists' studios .  Many of these professional artists will demonstrate the nuts and bolts operations that they use in their "work of art."

Artists Demonstrations of Techniques and Process; meet the artist
Scheduled artist demonstrations posted on the web and through out the event offer an opportunity to discover the answers to "how do they do that" and to meet the artists whose work over the years is found throughout the Atlanta and International Community. This is a great opportunity for those that want to break out of one field and into the art field they are passionate about, or simply want to see what goes on in the studios of artists.

Professional Artists, Intertwined in the Community
Commercial and private commissions
The work of artists has an impact on our everyday experience, touching our lives in many ways. At ARC , that relationship within the community will be seen in the ongoing commissions in the studios of AFX's as Andre Freitas sculpts dinosaurs for the Plaza project at  Fernbank's Natural History Museum, or in the evolution of a new sculpture for the FSU campus at the metal working studio of Marygrace Perkins.  Shane McDonald is working through the Georgia Landmarks Artist Group , whose goal is to preserve the landscape of Cobb County through works of art using various media so as to have an historical record of what might otherwise be forgotten. 

Many artists here routinely work on private commissions as well.   The artists here are routinely working on projects for both private and corporate commissions, as seen in the mahogany boat Benjamin Osborne is creating in his studio. Evenings at ARC are abuzz with live Theatre at Blank Stage, and studios holding classes in painting, jewelry making, stained glass, quilting, stone cutting, acting and portraiture. Visitors will have the opportunity to sign up for classes at Open House .
