SCENE+SEEN:
SUMMER 2013 at Project Art and Ferrin Gallery
Summer brings ART + ARTISTS from far away places around the world Adelaide, Australia, Jingdezhen, China, Seoul, Korea, to the small village in Cummington, MA, USA on the Eastern edge of the Berkshires, in the heart of the Hilltowns and just west of the Pioneer Valley.
The former mill building, on the bank of the Westfield River, became Project Art in 2007 and home base for Sergei Isupov and Leslie Ferrin. Now with Ferrin Contemporary located there, and Sergei and his wife Kadri traveling to Estonia in the summer, the studio hosts resident artists and new projects get launched. This year the sessions run July – September.
Adjacent to the group studio on the first floor, Ferrin Contemporary exhibits selections from current projects and houses the library, offices and warehouse.
Our next open house and artist salon is Tuesday, August 14, 6 – 8:00, but other days, we are open by appointment. Call 413.446.0614 or email leslie.ferrin@gmail.com
