State of the Art Opening

When Tony Iadicicco invited me to show with him in the first of many new venues in Schenectady’s lower State Street, I figured he saw something that no one else could.  Few people walk those parts any time of day, let alone in the evening for art.  I supported him as best I could by joining the one-nigh show, and prayed that at least 20 people would stumble upon us.

I don’t know how Tony pulled it off, but 150 came out for what he has titled State of the Art.  Located at 137 State Street, State of the Artwill be open on the third Friday of every month, featuring a variety of local artists.  The DSIC keeps their offices open on third Fridays, featuring a new artist as well.  As additional venues open, hopefully a run down part of town will makes its turn.

Art Show Today

I had a fantastic time at the Stockade Art Show this past weekend.  There was great attendance and conversations, not to mention that I sold several paintings.  Here’s some images of the event…

Art Night Schenectady – New Venue

2009 September 15
by brian hofmeister

Schenectady hosts an “Art Night” every third Friday of the month.  Most venues are centrally located where Jay and State intersect. 

This Friday, September 18th, I will be participating in a new venue for artists to showcase, further down State Street.    It’s only a one night show, so if you’d like to support this new development of Schenectady Arts, please come out from 5-9.  If it works, I’m sure Tony will run it again each month.
