After a long winter, at Open Essex we're opening up our outdoor spaces for art! Come by for our open-air art fair, where artists will take over our parking lot with outdoor booth spaces. We'll also have food, music, activities for kids, and all kinds of surprises. This is a great opportunity to learn about what’s going on at Essex Art Center, BICA, BICA School and with artists who live and work in our neighborhood.
