Art Source Gallery Celebrates Fall With ARToberfest Oct. 17

BOISE, Idaho — Art Source Gallery invites the Boise community to celebrate the colors, creativity and simple joys of autumn at ARToberfest, a free, family-friendly fall gathering Saturday, Oct. 17, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

ARToberfest will offer hands-on art activities for children and adults, including pottery dishes, mixed-media leaves, watercolor cards and decoupage pumpkins. Most activities are free, although some projects may have a small supply fee.

In addition to creating their own artwork, visitors can explore original work by more than 40 Idaho artists represented at Art Source Gallery. The exhibition includes paintings, photography, sculpture, jewelry, mixed media and other forms of fine art. Many of the gallery’s member artists will be on hand throughout the event to talk with visitors about their creative processes, inspirations and experiences as working artists.

“ARToberfest is a chance to slow down, enjoy the season and celebrate creativity with friends, family and our local art community,” said Margaret Donat, event coordinator and gallery member artist.

Founded in 1993, Art Source Gallery is an artist-owned cooperative that has provided a home for local artists and a destination for the Boise community for more than three decades. Located in Boise’s Linen District, the gallery features original artwork by local and regional artists working in a variety of media.
