Open Call to Artists

Connecticut River Artisans Cooperative, 55 Main Street, Essex , CT 06426, is hosting an Open House for artists on Sunday, June 24th . The open house is from 1:00 pm until 4:pm, or whenever.

If you are a Connecticut Artist who is looking for a new venue to showcase your work, we might be it. We are located in Essex, CT, a well known tourist attraction and shopper’s destination.

Contact Gay Petruzzi, 860-578-9595, gaypetruzzi@att.net, for an appointment. Meet our members, enjoy the refreshments, find out about us. Learn about the advantages of a cooperative versus consigning or selling at shows. Be sure to bring samples of your work as members will be on hand to Jury that day.

Items must be quality originals made by the artist. No imports, wholesalers or reps, please. We are not jurying jewelry, candles or soaps at this time.
