Jackson 2011 Art Tour
Join us on May 14th & 15th, 2011 - Jackson, MI
The third Arts Alliance Art Tour will be May 14th and 15th from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The Art Tour is unique in that it celebrates the vibrancy of the Jackson Arts Community.
On May 14th, visit the homes or studios of local artists and roam through pop-up galleries featuring more art. Watch artists at work in several different media, creating new art. Ask as many questions as you like. See how art enhances a home or office. Perhaps buy some original, affordable art. Some artists will have works for sale, with a portion of the proceeds going to Art Alliance’s non-profit activities.
On May 15th, visit art galleries at Jackson Community College (Potter Center), Spring Arbor University (Ganton Art Gallery), and Ella Sharp Museum. View the lovely icon collection at St. Demetrius Orthodox Church.
ART 634 and Armory Arts will be open both days. The Armory Arts is open for the season. Artists, including some newcomers, will be in their studios, with everything from paintings to jewelry, to fiber arts and crafts.
Roadside signs will help you identify the arts destinations. Please park carefully and treat people’s homes and studios respectfully. Shoe covers will be available at each location.
Tickets will be available at each location. One ticket is good for all locations for both days.
