Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Art, Workshops, Music & Food
at the Santa Monica Airport Artwalk 2012
Saturday, March 17, 12-5pm
Each year the city of Santa Monica sponsors an Art Walk at the Santa Monica Airport. At the airport a community of artists works quietly alongside the hum of rotor blades and the roar of jet engines. Hidden from the world at large on most days, on March 17th 2012 the artists that call the airport home will once again open their studio doors and let the public into their creative process. I am fortunate to have an intelligent, talented and caring group of artists and gallerists around me. When the news of the world threatens to throttle our creative souls, a shared artistic community can help keep us on the path.
I enjoy this day greatly. The crowd of visitors is convivial and eclectic and represents the diversity that I love in Los Angeles. Children and friends of all ages are welcome.
My studio is located at the Santa Monica Art Studios Hangar

The Santa Monica Airport and Cultural Affairs Divisions invite you to discover Santa Monica Airport. Explore open studios, watch artful demonstrations, try your hand at an art workshop, and enjoy live Irish jigs, food trucks and family friendly activities all in one of LA County’s oldest operating airfields. Santa Monica Airport has a rich background as the former home of the Douglas Aircraft Company and the birthplace of the DC-3.
The airport has developed over time into an arts incubator, and is home to a number of creative venues housed in converted airplane hangars. More than 60 local artists and performers will have their private studios and works on view. Painting, sculpture, ceramics, and mixed media will be represented and many artists will be selling work from their studios and offering refreshments.
