Every fall, on the first weekend of November, the artists and craftspeople of South Boston open their doors to share their work and their studios with the community. This year, nearly 50 artists in The Distillery building, along with Thomas Young Studios and Medicine Wheel Productions, invite you to experience their work. Visitors can mingle with creative types, tour the unique environments in which art is produced, and make purchases directly from the artists. In addition to art studios, visitors can get a peek into live/work lofts, creative small businesses, and corridors which often serve as gallery space. With everything from oil painters to wood workers, alongside sculptors, jewelers and poets, there is something for everyone. Come meet the artists and ?check out what’s new in the local arts scene ?during South Boston Open Studios on Saturday November 2nd – Sunday, November 3rd from noon to 6pm. Support our local artists!

Since a tragic accident on September 6th, Kevin Cellucci – a carpenter, a husband and father of three from Dorchester – has been in coma. In one swift moment, after a car veered over the road’s lane markings along the Arborway, life for the Celluci family will never be the same. His wife Tina (Lamonica from Southie) and his three boys ages – all under the age of four, need not only our prayers but our help financially as well.
On Saturday, November 2nd, a fundraiser will be held to show support for the Cellucci family. It will be held in at the IBEW Hall in Dorchester beginning at 7pm. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. You can purchase tickets by emailing [email protected]
