One week away!
Artisphere will be here next weekend – and it’s FULL CAPACITY! Not to mention FREE!
Artisphere has a schedule jam packed with activities for everyone this year. In addition to shopping the works of 100+ local and national artists, attendees can enjoy live music, art demos, crafts + activities for the kids, and more.
Before you head through the festival gates this year, you might want to check out some of the activities/exhibits that will be there this year 😊
🎨 GE Artist Row: Admire the work of 135 visual artists — and maybe score the perfect gift for Mother’s Day (or for yourself). Want a sneak peek? See all participating artists.
