Equinox 2008 - a 2 Day Celebration of Sculpture and Performing arts

Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds, in Old Lyme Connecticut, is celebrating the autumnal equinox
with a 2 DAY celebration of Sculpture and Performing Arts.

FRIDAY EVENING September 19, 6:00 - 8:30PM
SATURDAY DAYTIME September 20, 12:00PM - 5:30PM

Boro_ag_quarterpg_oct08 Join us for a multi-cultural Equinox weekend of sculpture and performing arts featuring sculpture by re-known sculptor and owner of Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds, Gilbert Boro.

See his new works including the majestic 16 x 23’ Pipe Henge.

Participating artists include sculptors: Bo Gehring, William Kent, Robert Meyer, Virgil Oertle, and Gabriel Warren.

Live entertainment by Argentine Tango Dancers with Kana of New York; The Gypsy Nomads; Kikyo Genso by Global Sounds; and the soothing sounds of Russ Becker and Stephen Roane make this event a pleasure and a multi cultural feast for the senses.

Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds is situated on 4.5 acres on the Lieutenant River in the historic district of Old Lyme, Connecticut. A center for the arts in Connecticut, and the birthplace of American Impressionism, Old Lyme is now also a center for abstract sculptural works from Studio 80.

Located next door to the Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts, where realistic figurative painting and sculpture are taught, Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds embraces the other traditional fine art establishments within this town while stepping a bit “outside the box” to create and display abstract sculptural works inspired by nature.

We invite you to visit Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds for this wonderful celebration on the shaded retreat of beautifully landscaped grounds and artistic inspiration. Complete with a loft exhibition gallery, the 3500 sq ft working studio is not to be missed.

Food by Coffee’s Country Market, wine by Chamard Vineyards and Divine Wines.

    - Audrey Heard, Art On Groton Bank

  • "I was just handed the most incredible magazine article that I think has ever been written about me. It is just fantastic and people are presenting me with copies of the magazine. Really beautifully written, really beautifully written and no one has ever put all the pieces together as nicely as you have. Thank you so much."

  • "I found Lisa Mikulski to be just the right resource at the right time: focused, professional, with a great eye for color and design, and with very fast turnaround time for getting images up on the web -- an artist's best friend and there when you need her! She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
