Nov. 4, 2002 – The second season of monthly ArtThursday walk-abouts in downtown Christiansted takes place this week, with seven galleries and crafts emporia keeping their doors open until 9 p.m. to welcome the public to peruse their creative offerings.
The participating business and the work they will be featuring:
– Christiansted Gallery — new work by Nancy Pistillis and giclees prints of paintings by Marjorie Robbins.
Danica Art Gallery — work by Danica David and Rosine Smith.
Gallery Gia — celebrating one year in operation.
i.b. Designs — a gala reopening showcasing owner Whealan Massicott's latest jewelry creations.
Iona Skye Gallery — watercolors by Chester Delacruz.
Jewelweed — assorted new, unusual jewelry designs.
Maria Henle Studio — paintings, both new and in progress.
ArtThursday hours are 5 to 9 p.m. Most participating businesses offer wine and nibblies to patrons. But you may work up an appetite making the rounds nonetheless. To integrate the culinary arts into the evening's experience, eight in-town Christiansted restaurants — Bacchus, Bombay Club, Kendrick's, Indies, Rum Runners, Savant, Top Hat and Tutto Bene — are offering wine and dessert specials that night.
For additional information, call the Henle studio at 773-7376.
