After almost 3 months in Germany, I’m returning just in time for the August St. Pete ArtWalk. You can come say hello – and of course look at and purchase my art at my Studio 114 (aka Luci Westphal Creative Lab) on the ArtsXchange campus. Because I’m flying in late the night before, I won’t have anything new on my walls BUT there is a new group exhibit opening in the Tully-Levine Gallery (which my studio is attached to) featuring work by ArtsXchange artists, including me.

St. Pete ArtWalk takes place on the 2nd Saturday every month and is free. From 5 to 9pm, art galleries and artist studios are open to the public in several St. Pete neighborhoods: Central Arts District, Grand Central District, Warehouse Arts District, Uptown Arts District and downtown Waterfront District.
