Background and History
The ArtCraft Open Studio & Sale began in 1981 as ‘The Bohemian Department Store’ an event hosted by artists in the Tower Press Building. This grew into the ‘Eat at Art’s’ exhibit at SPACES has always been held on the first weekend in December. It has been hosted by artists in the ArtCraft Building for the past 33 years.
Artists have shared a co-operative studio in the 6th floor of the ArtCraft Building since 1987. Although artists have changed the Open Studio Sale is now in its 20th year in this location. The event began in 1981 as the ‘Bohemian Department Store’ in their studios in the Tower Press Building. This was a collection of Cleveland Institute of Art students, alumni and teachers. Out of this grew the idea of ‘Eat at Art’s’ exhibit at SPACES in 1982. The artists moved the sale as they changed studios, keeping it on the first weekend of December.
The ArtCraft Building’s 6th Floor Co-op is currently shared by Janet Luken, Ikuko Miklowski, Celeste Stauber, Clare Raack, Kristi Copez, Gail Taber, Alan Mintz and Mark Yasenchack. This is a group of arts educators, painters, ceramic and installation artists. While not a live/work studio, there is someone in a studio just about 24 hours a day! We value the small community we have formed. Just over 50 artists have called this floor their studio over the last 29 years.
Angelica Pozo, George Bowes, Dan Postotnik, Susan Gallagher, Andrea Serafino and Susan Weir started the space in 1987, and while the residents have changed, the space and purpose have remained the same. The 6th Floor Studio is to the Cleveland art community what the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon is to Hollywood.
