I’ve confirmed that I’ll be participating in Philadelphia Open Studio Tours… again this year. If you’re not familiar with POST, it’s a wonderful two weekends every year where artists all over the city open up their homes and work spaces to the public. Grab a map and a few friends and go find out what great artwork is being made right in your own neighborhood, and use it as an excuse to go for a stroll through neighborhoo
