The studio artists at the ArtsXchange + MGA Sculpture Studio + Soft Water Gallery invite arts & culture workers (artists, gallerists, organizers, curators, etc.) to an industry night on the Friday evening before the official St. Pete 2nd Saturday ArtWalk.

Come see where we create and display our art – and connect over each other’s creations, ideas, methods, inspiration, and light refreshments. And of course: enter at your own risk. 

This is NOT a replacement for Saturday ArtWalk. Our studios and galleries will be open to the public again the next evening for the monthly St. Pete 2nd Saturday ArtWalk (5pm – 9pm)

This event is part of the new “Open Studio Friday” initiative. Because all of us studio artists, curators, gallery owners and employees are always at our own studios/galleries during 2nd Saturday ArtWalk, we are the only people who miss out on seeing each other’s art spaces. Inspired by Sixstar Studios, which opened on the Friday before February ArtWalk, we have launched a monthly rotating initiative with a different art studio building hosting an “open house” each Friday before ArtWalk.
