Knick Knacks by Tamara Thomsen

20x200 artist Tamara Thomsen will be happy to host you in her studio in Brooklyn this Saturday and Sunday, October 17th and 18th from 1-6 p.m. Tamara is a participant in this year's A.G.A.S.T. (Annual Gowanus Artists Studio Tour) which organizes over 100 artists to share their spaces and their work.

From the A.G.A.S.T. mission statement:

The mission of the Annual Gowanus Artists Studio Tour is to provide the public a unique opportunity to visit and engage one-on-one with working artists for the purpose of gaining a broader appreciation of the various types of visual art media. The intimacy of the in-studio experience encourages an educational dialogue between the visitor and the artist. The visitor is able to see the process and methods of making art in the environment in which the art is created. We believe the artists and their work constitute a vital piece of the fabric of urban life by linking community together through the arts. By opening his/ her studio free to the public, an artist affords a community member a chance to encounter a new stimulating artistic environment, ask questions, and expand his/ her appreciation of visual arts as they are being created in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn.

You can find Tamara and her studio here:
94 Ninth Street, 4th Floor, Studio 48
