Studio Grand Opening & Salem Arts Festival 6/4-6
Welcome! Are you ready to get out in the world again? Come visit! We will be open to the public for a grand opening party and art show Friday June 4th through Sunday June 6th!
Our first show is titled “Setting Sail” and is a collection of all female artists exploring ocean themes and ideas around re-launching themselves in a post-pandemic world. Creative Harbor is setting sail as a new arts studio, and we’re all individually setting sail as we widen our circles and visit more places and seeing more people than we have in the last year. A partial list of accepted artists are shown below.
Our studio will be open the same hours as the Salem Arts Festival. The artist’s reception will be Friday June 4th from 5-8PM*. Several artists from the show will be in attendance for a meet and greet.
On Saturday and Sunday we are planning to be open from 11-4* and will update here as we receive more guidance from the festival team. We will defer to their hours if they are different. Start your Salem Arts Festival Experience with FREE PARKING here at Creative Harbor and we’ll direct your to the other events around town.
We are located at 35 Congress Street, part of the "Shetland Park" complex in Salem, MA. Directions are available on our contact page.
The “Setting Sail” art show is co-hosted with Wicked Smaht Wellness and is part of the larger Salem Art Festival 2021.
*Our studio owner, Katie, has young kids. We want to offer children and immune compromised people an opportunity to experience the art in a way that makes them feel safe. On Friday there will be a preview where masks are required from 4-5 before the main event hours. On Saturday we will also open an hour early (10-11AM) for anyone who prefers to view the artwork while everyone in the studio is masked. All people who are not yet vaccinated will be asked to wear a mask if they visit. Please understand that as a small business navigating continually changing rules/regulations this is difficult to enforce. We will use the honor system and wish it was possible to please everyone!
