The Stutz Artists Association will host its 15th Annual Stutz Artists Open House April 25 and 26, 2008. More than 60 artists open their studios to visitors during the two-day event. It's not only an opportunity to see the work of 60 local artists in one place at one time, it's a chance to see where and how the work is created. Artwork ranges from paintings, drawings and photography, to sculpture, installations and fabric. |

General Information

In addition to being a great place to buy one-of-a-kind gifts (artwork ranges from $12 to $10,000) the event offers a rare chance to see vintage cars in the historic Stutz car factory. Visitors also enjoy special gallery opening activities such as acoustic music and food vendors. You can view artists' work in a One Piece Exhibition in the new STUTZARTSPACE Gallery on first floor at the 10th Street Entrance. Admission is $12, and proceeds support the Stutz Residency Program, two scholarships that provides free studio space and utilities for emerging local artists. It is one of the largest grants to individual artists in the state. |

The Stutz Artists
The Stutz Artists Association is the largest association of working artists in Indiana. It exists to encourage its member artists and to promote their work.
 |
The myriad artists who make up the Stutz Artists Association all share the common love of art but widely diverge from there. They are photographers, painters, sculptors, silversmiths and illustrators. They are a variety of ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. Some have advanced degrees in art, and others advance their art in degrees. Some teach classes and hold workshops, and others mentor one-to-one. Some produce work that's accessible to a broad audience and sell a large amount of work, while others focus on work that's purely for their own enjoyment. Many of the Stutz artists have artwork in permanent collections at museums, schools and hospitals. Some are regional and even national award winners. |
