Englewood Art Summer Market July 19-20
The Englewood Art Center, a division of Ringling College of Art and Design, is offering visitors and residents a chance to enjoy original artworks created by more than 20 area artists. EAC’s Summer Art Market is from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday, July 19, and Saturday, July 20 in the center’s Loranger Gallery, 350 South McCall Road, Englewood.
This free, family-friendly event features original artworks in variety of media, including paintings, glass mosaics, ceramics, bone jewelry, photography, electrified wood and much more. The two-day event also features live music by The NepTunZ on Friday and Shindig on Saturday, and food from the Outside the Lunchbox food truck on Friday, and the Simply Greek by Wynnberry food truck on Saturday. There will be artist demonstrations and activities including creating dragonfly magnet clips.
For the first time this year, the Englewood Art Center will be giving out logo branded tote bags with vendor swag to the first 50 visitors each day. Each bag will have different types of swag that could include art note cards, ceramic ornaments, coupons, art postcards and even a very special golden ticket for one lucky early shopper each day.
“This event offers residents and visitors a chance to see great art and meet local artists,” said Samantha Parkinson, the director of the Englewood Art Center. “And it gives area-based artists an opportunity to exhibit during the summer.”
