The Hatch Art Center was originally constructed as a dormitory for nuns and nursing students, and then used for the city’s police headquarters for three decades. The rooms on the second floor are used for artist studios, and art lines the hallway. Take a peek behind the studio door, artists will be present and opening their spaces to the public over the course of the day. Participating artists include Kayce Gifford, Grace Queen, Coral Sifre, Mike Kelly, and more!
Additional offerings include Stolen Moment by Erin K. Schmidt and Laura Beyer in the Hatch Art Gallery and The Mechanical Requiem by Ed Griggs and Luke MacGilvray in The Jail Cell. The Hatch Art Center will be open from 12pm – 9pm, with an opening reception starting at 6pm. All events are free and open to the public.
