We are once again participating in the City of New Rochelle’s Council on the Arts annual ArtsFest, a weekend long festival highlighting the best the area has to offer. And since we think that Charles Fazzino’s studio is certainly one of the VERY BEST things New Rochelle has to offer, we’re opening our doors to the public!
A Look at Everything ArtsFest Has to Offer:
The city will come alive with art exhibits, live music, great food, incredible performances, shopping, and tours of artists’ studios throughout the downtown area. On Saturday or Sunday, you can begin your tour at the Fazzino studios and then hop on the free “Culture Trolley” to visit more than 20 other venues around the area. This year, the trolley will not run as frequently as in the past, so please plan your trip accordingly.
Over the weekend, you will also be able to enter the “Charles Fazzino 325th Anniversary of New Rochelle Scavenger Hunt.” Pick up your game card on Saturday or Sunday at the Fazzino studios and visit half of the participating venues to fill it in. Then enter to win a Fazzino 3D limited edition of New Rochelle or a commemorative 325th Anniversary poster.
Four Scheduled Fazzino Studio Tours for ArtsFest:
At each event, you’ll see the behind-the-scenes workings of Charles Fazzino’s personal art studio, have the opportunity to spend time with Charles, and see a wonderful collection of new and unique 3-D works!
