Philadelphia Open Studio Tour




Hello There. This past Saturday we drove to the Philadelphia Open Studio Tour. It runs this weekend and next weekend. This past weekend it was studios west of Broad Street. I was impressed with how organized it was. It was obvious that this has been done for years in Philly. They had brochores, maps, and even big name sponsors. We started at 59th Street and ended up at DeVinci Gallery in South Philly. Along the way we met some new friends and old time friends as well. We walked June at Clark Park then stopped by at Sam's Place at 49th and Osage. The West Philly art scene has grown since I was livin there for sure. After attending the opening at the DeVinci gallery we went to Washington Avenue and had Vietnamese noodle soup. MMmm good for the hour ride back to Millville. It was a refreshing and enlightening trip to see art and to be in West Philly and NOT be at work.
