The Wimberley Valley Art League (WVAL) is offering its annual artists’ studio tour this fall on September 21st and 22nd. This year visitors can view a wide variety of art ranging from painting, photography, fiber arts, glass sculpture, jewelry, & music. Six local artists representing these creative endeavors will be featured, making this showing an unusual cross section of artistic activity in this area.
Residents & tourists will have the opportunity of visiting workplaces not normally open to the public. Studios of the following artists will be shown: Sandra Doak & Sue Ellen Stavrand, fiber arts; Lilli Pell, paintings; Bob Cook, paintings & photography; Zanna James, jewelry; Bill Meek, glass sculpture; & Dodee & Billy Crockett, music production. Profiles & photos of the artists and their studios will be featured in area newspapers as the tour dates approach. Several artists have websites where further information is available.
Tickets benefit the WVAL, a non-profit organization, & its art education projects. For this special fund-raising event, tickets will be priced the same as last years: $12 for adults and $6 for students. Purchases of artworks may be available at various studios & a percentage of the sale will also benefit WVAL projects. Tickets will be available mid-August at the Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center. A “photo loop” orienting this year’s tour with photographs of the artists & their studios can be seen at the Visitor’s Center sometime in early September.
Don’t miss this opportunity to see what makes Wimberley an artist colony truly unique to the Texas Hill County!
