Memorial Day weekend was a great kick-art to summer on Guemes Island (kick-art… kickstart, get it?)!
“Art for Sale” Spring Studio Tour a Success!
On Saturday, May 28th, Guemes Island artists opened up their studios yet again for tours and art sales. Many people ventured from studio to studio to help support our island artists and show their love for the arts. This has become such a successful event for our island artists that we plan to have 2 every year. Our next studio tour will be on the first Saturday of December (December 3rd)! Be sure to mark it on your calendars!
A huge thank you to all our participating artists and those who supported our artist’s. We are excited for December event!
