Please join the Block Island Arts Council on Saturday October 7, 2023 from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm for our inaugural, island-wide Open Studio event. We will be hosting a family-friendly, interactive day of arts exploration will allow guests to meet dozens of Block Island artists from many different genres in over 30 different venues across the island.
Begin your adventure traveling the island for a day of beautiful arts and crafts, exciting entertainment, and free hands-on art activities by picking up your free Passport to the Arts and Map/Guide between 9 and 11:30 a.m. at the Block Island Chamber of Commerce. Guests will collect Passport Stamps at each venue they visit during the day. At the end of the day visitors will receive a free raffle ticket for every stamp they’ve collected. Each member of your group or family should get their passport stamped at every venue you visit; you can each earn as many as 20 stamps through the day. You will receive one chance in our free raffle for each stamp you’ve earned. The more art you appreciate through your day, the more chances you will have to win a great prize!
At the end of your day, bring your stamped passport to raffle tables; at the B.I. Chamber of Commerce from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.
Rain or shine, Winfield’s will host an array of artists from 9 am to 4 pm and live performances will be held on the stage at Yellow Kittens from 12 until 4 p.m.
