REED STREET ARTISTS OPEN STUDIOS

Saturday, September 21, 2019, 11am-6pm

For more than a decade, one of Taos’s best-kept secrets has been the complex of studios at 1022 Reed Street, south of the downtown historic district. One can see printmaking, painting, pottery, drawing, jewelry, and sculpture, all in one location.

For one day only, September 21, during the 2019 Taos Fall Arts Festival, the Reed Street artists are hosting open studios.

This event offers a rare chance to visit the artists, along with a glimpse of the creative ferment that has made Taos a mecca for artists for more than a century.

Refreshments will be served.
