Meet the artists of Metro Art Studios – over 40 artists working in a wide variety of disciplines, from drawing to painting, sculpture to jewelry, printmaking to photography, video, and music. Three full floors in a renovated corset factory in the South End of Bridgeport with professional artists in loft studios to wander, discover, explore, and learn about various forms of art, inspiration, and the creative process.

Special events during Open Studios include the opening reception of Margins of Memory, a thought provoking exhibit curated by Sariah Park in Crown Gallery on Saturday, November 8 from 1-4 PM, as well as Art Squared, a fundraising exhibit of all square art at affordable prices of $100-$300 each to support Metro programming and events. Collect clues to a scavenger hunt where every correct entry wins a piece of original art. Visit art activation stations throughout the building to create and make art yourself. View a short film, Our Last Lungs, and learn more about Remington Woods and the Sierra Club’s efforts to preserve it.

This event is free, although donations are gladly accepted. Fully ADA accessible; ample free on and off street parking.
