It was a crisp November evening when the community gathered for the last Open Studio of the 2024 residency season. The waxing crescent moon was high in the darkening sky, glowing over the Dairy Barn, with its light spilling on the barn quilts that efface several buildings. The Open Studio began in the classroom, where Arts Program Manager Ana Varas, PhD welcomed the sold-out crowd and introduced four artists in residence:?Sylvia Friday, Jackleen de La Harpe, and Arūnas and Katie O?lapas, Shortly thereafter, the Open Studio attendees split into three groups which rotated through each of the artist’s studios on The Ranch: Sylvia in the Pickle Room; Jackleen in the Upstairs Studio; and Arūnas and Katie in the Old Shop.
