New York
Artcards brings you to art June 9, 2009

Weekly Outlook

First, congrats to everyone who participated in the Bushwick Open Studios and Atlantic Avenue Art Walk -- it's impressive how much the events have grown and the amount of great work that I saw from emerging artists -- keep it up everyone! This week there is still plenty going on in NYC if you haven't jet-setted over to Italy. This weekend the Williamsburg Gallery Association hosts the North Side Festival with live music in galleries on Thursday night, receptions on Friday night, and an art walk on Saturday. Check below for more highlights and feel free to forward this message to a friend.
