Studio 84 is inviting the public to their annual Gala Party. This year it is on Saturday, April 27 from 4-6 pm. It will be a celebration as they transition from their first 10 years to the next 10 years.

Deborah Blackwell, director, states, “The artists are always so excited for this event as it is a celebration of their creativity and hard work. It’s a great opportunity for them to meet the public and talk about their art and they love doing that.”

The event will feature a mini dance performance by several of the artists accompanied by the Madison based string quartet, Vox. There will be plenty of hors d’oeuvres to enjoy, a raffle of beautiful baskets, along with a 50/50 raffle.

There is also a special exhibit and sale of art created by community members and Studio 84 artists with the theme of transition. Proceeds from any sales from this exhibit will help support Studio 84’s programing.

Studio 84 is located at 121 W. Center St. in Whitewater. It is a non-profit art studio that provides experiences in the arts for the community. They specialize in the creative and vocational development of people with disabilities, including those with Autism, physical disabilities, cognitive limitations, and mental illness. The studio is open to all ages and all abilities.
