Open Art Fridays at ArtWorks

It’s no secret that artists are constantly searching for inspiration. The great irony is that inspiration is everywhere. Sometimes it appears in the humble expanse of nature, in the quiet complexities of a well cast shadow, or in the recollection of a distant memory. Whenever it comes, we embrace it. An inspired artist is a productive one. It seems that one idea leads to the next and we work like crazy.

And then it happens; For whatever reason it leaves as quickly as it came, and we lose our motivation to create.

Artists inspire artists.

It’s a very simple statement. When creative people come together it starts a dialogue that can lead to new artistic possibilities. Most artists work alone at home or in a studio. We think that it’s important to provide artists with an opportunity to break the routine and to make art in a new and open environment.

Every Friday night, from 6:00 p.m. until 9-ish, ArtWorks does just that. We open our classroom for all artists to come and work. This is a great way to meet other artists, get feedback, or to discuss what’s happening in Kenosha. There is no charge and there’s nothing to lose.

I hope to see you here!

I love the Open Art Nights @ Artworks! I go every single friday that I dont have a conflict at 716. Chet, you’re doing the right thing with this program, and I can’t wait to begin creating art at Open Art Night!

I go to open art night every friday… Chet is an awesome help when I ask for his opinion on my art. It is a great experience, and I hope more artists come out and enjoy the space, time to be creative!

Thank you ARTWORKS!

Open Art night needs to keep going and getting bigger. It’s just about the only place I can work now. It’s great to look around and see what everyone else is doing.
