Now in its seventh year, this open studio event, The Art Drive, organized by Dartmouth and Westport artists of diverse and unique talents emphasizes educating visitors in home studio environments in some very unusual and dramatic settings, spotted among the area’s villages, lovely farm land and sea coast. Visitors will have the opportunity to view the works of a guest artists at several of the studios. The event will take place Saturday and Sunday, August 9 & 10, from 10 – 5.

Art Drive artists and invited other talented artists have created their own unique rendition of the winter flounder, all of which will be individually displayed for two weeks prior to the Art Drive at various sponsor and other locations, and offered for sale on eBay via our website Saturday, August 2 through Monday, August 11. The locations of individual fish will be indicated on our website along with bidding details.  The image below is by Wendy Goldsmith.

Please check www.the-Art-Drive.com for more samples of participants’ work. Each year we ask each participating artist to individually donate 5 to 10% of proceeds from sales to the Lloyd Center for the Environment — a way to support an organization dedicated to education of our natural local environment and an inspiration to many of the artists who work and live in the area.
