SPECTACULAR SUMMER ART OPEN HOUSE AT NOANK FOUNDRY ARTIST STUDIOS

NOANK – Once again the Noank Foundry Artist Studios will open their doors for their Spectacular Summer Art Open House on Saturday, July 6th, from noon – 7 pm. Always a festive community event, the open house and sale celebrates many local creative talents and provides a peek into the work spaces of the area’s most celebrated artists.

This year, the summer spectacular will feature many new and exciting artisans. In addition, there will be an herbalist with cool and delicious fruit smoothies, and the Foundry will also host a wine tasting, featuring South African wines. Joining in this welcome summer tradition, many of the local Noank businesses and restaurants will be offering specials as well.

The Noank Foundry, a historical village landmark that has been transformed from abandoned building to working artist studios, will host the celebration of art and will include foundry artists, as well as many invited guests. In addition to traditional fine art paintings and sculpture, this event will include silver and glass jewelry, wrought iron, stained glass art, herbal remedies and spices, photography, a local author, and yummy snacks.

The Noank Foundry is located at 70 Marsh Road, directly across the street from the Seahorse Restaurant. Please call 860-572-2799 for additional information or contact us through the Foundry Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Noank-Foundry-Artist-Studios/131890694553.
