Walk n’ Crawl

The only thing we love more than creeping through open houses? Creeping through open studios. During the Eastside Culture Crawl 337 artists open their spaces to peeping toms like us. These aren’t glossy galleries (though we love those too). These are real, rough-around-the-edges working studios. Our picks:

Katherine Neil
The loose lines and pastel colours of Katherine Neil’s works would look as good in our living room as they do in her live/work space. The ARC, 1701 Powell Street, Suite 708

David J. Robinson
We’ll work our way up to the fourth floor studio of sculptor David J. Robinson, whose insanely detailed worksare eerily beautiful. In fact, you might recognize one of them from Yaletown’s Mainland Street. 1000 Parker St., Suite 440

Union Wood Co.
We can’t wait to get a peek at the birthplace of Union Wood Co.’s rugged, industrial pieces. Although it might be tough to continue the crawl with a gigantic solid wood headboard in tow. 503 Railway Street —Kelsey Dundon
