Hey, Neighbor: Local Artists Right in Our Backyard

Attention all art enthusiasts, October 1 and 2 are your chance to take to the streets and soak in the creative scene of Fargo-Moorhead. 

The annual Fargo-Moorhead Studio Art Crawl features over 80 artists’ work in almost 40 different studios that will all be open to the public.

This free event offers a chance to really support, connect and discuss with local artists about their work and about the arts community in Fargo-Moorhead. 

The Studio Crawl is hosted by Fargo-Moorhead Visual Artists (FMVA) and local businesses to promote the interaction of local artists with local citizens.

One of the major grabs about this event is all the collaboration occurring in our large community.

FMVA wants to make the crawl weekend a large cluster of events so patrons are always busy taking in a new piece of art. 

“Many other organizations and businesses all participate to offer more activities for the increasing number of people who are touring the Crawl.” Jon Offutt said, executive director of the Studio Crawl.

The sheer size of the event is also a huge bonus: studios are located from 15th Ave N to 88th Ave S in the F-M area, and expands into Harwood, N.D. and Felton and Kragnes, Minn.

Multiple studios and stores will show paintings, sketches, prints, glass, wood and more mediums will intrigue all art patrons.

While every art fanatic has their favorite pieces, style or media, these two days are the perfect opportunity to broaden your horizons and see something you never thought possible.

More information, including a map of the event and descriptions of each of the artists participating, can be found at fmva.org/studio-crawl/.
