Artstock the 12th Annual Artist Studio Tour in Greensboro, NC, Takes Place - Oct. 10 & 11, 2009

Artstock will celebrate its 12th Annual Artist Studio Tour throughout the greater Greensboro, NC, area the weekend of Oct. 10 & 11, 2009. Studios will be open on Sat. from 10am-5pm and Sun. from 1-5pm.  The tour is free and open to the public ­ look for the red balloons at each location!

With over 60 individual artists participating, come and experience their diverse talents in all media. The participating artists will be displaying their products in their own studios as well as at group and gallery locations. 

This year's motto for Artstock is "Stimulate Local Creativity and Economy."

Artstock artists will host a special Artstock Preview Exhibit between Sept. 18 through Oct. 16, 2009, at the CVA Gallery, Greensboro Cultural Center in downtown Greensboro. Over 40 artists will be represented in the exhibit.

Media represented in this year's tour include: watercolor, oil, acrylic, metal, photography, pen and ink, handmade paper, collage, mixed media, clay, wood, graphite, found object, oil pastel and charcoal.

Artstock developed from the Artist's Support System Established Synergy, started by a small group of local artists in 1996 to provide support, share ideas and concerns. Artstock collectively represents individual visual artists in the greater Greensboro area by presenting a studio tour the second weekend of October. By promoting the distinctive talent of each artist, we in turn underline the creativity within our broader community.  Support the "Stimulate Local Creativity and Economy" with Artstock 2009!

Artstock locations with artists' names and addresses will be available at The Marshall Art Gallery (301-H Pisgah Church Road) and Winter Light Gallery (410 Blandwood Avenue) after the first of September. Maps and artists' list will also be available at all participating artists' locations and on our website: (www.artstocktour.com).
