This month’s Open Studios features a mix of playful, bold, and thought-provoking shows across our mini-galleries and loft spaces. On the 4th floor, Hello my Art is… (through Oct 6) invites you to meet creativity in all its forms, while the 5th floor wraps up Avian Exotica (through Sept 6), a vibrant exploration of birdlife. In the Lofts, Emily Sandagata’s Perfect (through Oct 13) greets visitors in the Lobby, and Dina Mordeno’s Nap Time (through Oct 12) brings whimsy to the Storage Closet Gallery. At the Loading Dock Gallery, Orange & Blue (Sept 3–28) showcases the power of color, with an opening reception on Saturday, Sept 6, from 3–5pm. Five floors to explore, plus inspiring galleries all around Western Avenue Studios & Lofts, don’t miss it! Saturday, September 6th 12–5 PM Western Avenue Studios & Lofts Free and open to the public #WesternAvenueStudios #FiberArt #TextileArtists #OpenStudios #5FloorsToExplore #MadeInLowell #SupportLocalArtists #CreativeLowell #ExploreLowell
