Doors before Tours -- BLOCKPARTY -- the GOSTdoors return to Gardiner, NY en masse

Block Party - Main Street in the Villiage of Gardiner, NY. September 26th 2015, 3pm - 7pm.

Hosted by the GOSTartists, there will be live painting demonstrations, children's activities, live music, food from local vendors, and a silent auction of the #GOSTdoors. (A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Gardiner Library.)

Silent Auction of the #GOSTdoors
If you have seen the #GOSTdoors in their ones and twos as you drove around in our area this past Spring, you know how much fun they were. Well, now you can see them all up close, they're clustered on Main Street in Gardiner. Get out of the car and come by for a look. There are new works from the GOSTartists, and also by other local artists.  There are more doors still to come before the block party weekend so keep your eyes peeled for new ones.... Now you can even take one home with you! Bidding begins at 3pm and closes at 6:45pm. 

Fall 2015 GOST -- the Gardiner Open Studio Tour
This Block Party is a kickoff event for the Fall 2015 GOST -- the Gardiner Open Studio Tour which will be held, as always on the second weekend of October; 10/10 - 10/12 from 10am to 5pm all three days. 

At the block party there will be an ongoing slideshow about the Tour, you can pick up our free Fall GOST Tour Map/Artist Guide at our booth, meet some of the artists and also check out the three new building-sized murals painted right in the Villiage of Gardiner earlier this year by three members of the Tour. 

Put the Fall GOST on your Calendar
On the Tour this Fall there are new artists to meet, and new studios to visit, and everyone of our group always has new work to show. So even if you been somewhere before there is always more to see and enjoy.

We hope to see you at the party and then on the Tour!
