Art by Julie Sutter-Blair, a participant in the 2023 Art in the Wright Place event.
This long-running art and craft fair has a few changes this year, including Friday night shopping with live music and a bar area. Saturday, that switches out to coffee, baked goods and, yes, some alcoholic beverages. Also look for a new location in the Atrium building. More than 50 area artists are participating, including former longtime Isthmus production artist and now ace woodworker Todd Hubler. Open 6-9 p.m. on Nov. 22 and 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on Nov. 23; more info at fusmadison.org.
media release: Exciting New Changes to Our 20th Annual Event!
New Name! Art in the Wright Place is now Art at the Wright Place. Why? Because we’re moving the event to the newer portion of our campus–the Atrium Building–which is a masterpiece in its own right! This venue is more spacious and allows us to add other features to this event.
New Days! Rather than being a Saturday/Sunday event, this year’s event will be Friday night from 6 pm to 9 pm and Saturday from 10 am to 6 pm.
Music and Refreshments! Friday night will include live music and a bar/lounge area. On Saturday, we’ll transform the bar into a café where coffee, baked goods, and alcoholic beverages may be purchased.
Raffle! We will continue to offer our much-loved raffle on both days.
Located on the campus of Frank Lloyd Wright’s historic masterpiece, the Unitarian Meeting House, Art at the Wright Place features original art from over 40 area artists. First Unitarian Society is located in scenic Shorewood Hills, close to the University of Wisconsin and across from the American Family Children’s Hospital. Find more info at this page.
