The artists of Traffic Zone Center for Visual Arts are once again pleased to hold their popular Open Studios event. This year we are holding our event in conjunction with the semi-annual North Loop Gallery Walk. Our past practice had been to hold the event on the first Saturday in May, but please note that this year we are holding Open Studios on Saturday, May 11, 2024. In addition to the 23 accomplished Traffic Zone artists, we are pleased to include 3 guest artists. Works in a variety of mediums – from photography to book arts to painting – will be available for viewing and for purchase directly from the artists.

Traffic Zone Gallery presents a group exhibition of works by Traffic Zone artists included in the 2023 Festschrift, a limited edition portfolio celebrating 30 years of the Traffic Zone artists’ cooperative.

Free and open to the public.
