ART 180's Open Studio Has Arrived!

ART 180's Open Studio Series provides an intimate glimpse at the art and ideas of young people in our fall 2009 programs.

Help us celebrate and support young artists from our fall programs as they work to create change in their community. Join us in these three intimate gatherings to see their work, hear their voices, and be inspired. Each program is free and open to the public (children welcome), so please join us and bring a friend or neighbor. Refreshments provided.

Renmark Consignment Shop
Turn both your house and a child's life around 180 degrees. Visit the new Renmark Consignment Shop in Church Hill (7 North 25th Street). Known for imaginative and original design, Renmark is adding a consignment shop to its retail space. Traditional, contemporary and sometimes eccentric goods to be found. (When we visited they even had an elephant trunk lamp!) Pay a visit if you're in the market for gently used home furnishings, and a percentage of sales will benefit ART 180.
