There is always a lot going on at the Grand Isle Art Works. Each day, a different member of our artisan cooperative works in the gallery. When you visit, be sure to ask about their work. You are bound to learn more about the ins and outs of that art product line. Each of our members is happy to share their stories!
We are open every Thursday evening until 8:00 PM. This is a great time to stop by on your way home from work. And if you just love fiber – plan to stop in every third Thursday for our Fiber enthusiasts’ Drop In! Our first gathering was a huge success. Lots of knitting, spinning and getting to know each other stories!
We’d love to spread out throughout the entire gallery space!
Our Grand Opening Celebration is right around the corner! Watch for the “tent raising” on Friday afternoon. This is for our fund raising barbecue! We will have lots of varieties of sausages on the grill, plus a few veggie burgers for the faint of heart! Combine these with potato salad, green salad. chips, drinks and Island Ice Cream – you won’t want to miss it. The cost is just $12.00 per plate. The proceeds will be used to purchase lighting for our “yellow” room. We are hoping for a big crowd between 12:00-4:00 pm for the food. The gallery will be open from 10:00-6:00 that day, too!
