Open Studios

“Winter Open Studios” 

December 14, 11-5PM

It’s that time of the year at Otis Street Arts Project! We and participating Artists By The Tracks open our studios to our favorite people ... YOU.

This season’s OPEN STUDIO features OSAP’s Resident Art Show plus live sketching by DC Creeper : Sigils making with Gareth Branwyn : works by Zofie King : aerial yoga with Kirsty Little : and chainsaw carving with Glenn Richardson, weather permitting.

Live Sketching by DC Creepers

DC Creepers will be live action sketching of rapid portraits of you or from a picture you supply. Each drawing takes about 8-10 minutes. Makes a great gift and/or upgrade to your social media image.

Making Sigils with Gareth Branwyn

Last year, local writer and maker, Gareth Branwyn, issued Artistic Licenses at the OSAP Open Studios. This year, he’s back to help you turn your desires into magical marks called sigils. Gareth and Boston author and occult scholar, Peter Bebergal, have developed a system for turning an intention into a magical symbol using roleplaying game dice and the magical squares of the seven classical planets. Tell Gareth your desire and he will turn it into a sigil on parchment that you can take home. Gareth will be assisted by artist Angela White who incorporated Gareth's system into her artwork.

Aerial Yoga: Enjoy a mini session with Kirsty Little. Stretch, strengthen and learn a new way to move -- in 10 minutes. First come first serve. Sessions end at 3PM.

Zofie King returns with her Santa Geodes.

Glenn Richardson, an Otis Street all-star, returns with his chainsaw and art work. Sign up to sit for a custom portrait, weather permitting.
