Arlene's Artist Materials is thrilled to open the exhibition Masterwork that celebrates the instructors of our Atelier at Arlene’s program running March 6th to the 28th. “Since we started offering classes and workshops at Arlene's, we were fortunate to work with such a talented group of local artists and art educators,” says Andrew Ochal, director of the Atelier at Arlene's. “We are thrilled to showcase their work and highlight the wide scope of art mediums and applications they use, like painting, mixed media, drawing, cast metal sculptures, printmaking on fiber and more.” Featured artists include Takeyce Walter, Corey Pitkin, Kristin Woodward, Kevin Kune, Carol Coogan, Robin Rosenthal, Kathy Klompas, Rebecca Flis, Carolyn Difiori Hopkins, and Erin Quillinan. See their masterpieces in person and get inspired to create your own. The Artist Reception is on Friday, March 6th, from 4:30 to 5:30 pm. It is free and open to the public. Food and beverages will be provided.


The Atelier at Arlene's is dedicated to fostering the creativity of our community since 2015. We pride ourselves in bringing the highest level of art education to every student while providing a comfortable safe place for students to grow. Classes and workshops are kept small ensuring everyone receives personalized instruction while still taking advantage of working in a group. Topics range over a wide variety of creative pursuits and are geared to all experience levels. arlenesartist.com


The R Gallery at Arlene’s exhibits emerging and established artists, working in any media, exhibiting contemporary artworks with an emphasis on technical execution. The aim is to showcase thought-provoking and impactful work while highlighting craftsmanship and technique. Our goal is to further enrich the community that we've been apart of since 1960. The gallery is located on the main level of Arlene’s Artist Materials, in the nook right behind the front counter. rgalleryarlenes.com

ABOUT ARLENE'S ARTIST MATERIALS 

Arlene’s Artist Materials started out as a ceramic studio in 1960, originally located in a small 500 sq ft storefront on Madison Ave. Outgrowing that location, Arlene’s moved to its current location, at 57 Fuller Road, Albany, NY (with over 10,000 sq ft), in 1974 to create the art supply store you know and love.

 

Teachers, students, parents and hobbyists can always find what they need at Arlene’s. Come and browse the handmade art papers, unique journals and artsy novelties in the gift section of our store. Everyone can find something at Arlene’s. Arlene’s has items found nowhere else in the area. We have over 40,000 different products and will be happy to special order anything we don’t have in stock.

 

Whether you paint, draw, sculpt; are a professional, student or a beginner artist, you will find what you want at Arlene’s. We deeply discount all our paints, brushes, canvases, and easels every day. Many more in-store specials are going on constantly. Come in and check them out!. You’ll find unexpected treats you can transform into treasures. Everyone on staff at Arlene’s is also an artist, so we are able to answer any of your questions. If we don’t know we will try as hard as we can to get you the answer.

 

Arlene’s is great for framing. Our framing department has highly skilled framers that can help you frame the piece you love. Arlene’s can handle small projects, big projects and everything in between. There are over 1000 custom frame options to choose from with tons of ready-made frames and frame kits too. Just need glass or a mat cut? Arlene’s has you covered there too. Why go anywhere else?


As an independent art supply store, we feel a special connection to the arts community in the Capital Region. In 2015  Arlene’s started our educational program, the Atelier at Arlene's, to foster the creativity of our customers. To further that connection, the R Gallery at Arlene’s and Makers Markets at Arlene’s came about to showcase local talent and develop a thriving creative community.
