Second Saturday in Asheville\u2019s River Arts District (RAD) happens on September 11, with many studios open longer hours throughout the day. Demonstrations, exhibitions, hands-on creativity, classes, music and refreshment are part of the offerings in this vibrant area encompassing more than 200 artists.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love that Second Saturdays inspire a lot of Asheville residents to come down and see what is new in the River Arts District,\u201d says Leslie Rowland. \u201cSecond Saturdays are a great way to remind our busy populace that there is a thriving arts community in Asheville that is not only recognized by art collectors all over the world but is also an integral part of our local economy.<\/p>\n

The revenue coming into the arts district stays local, supporting other independent businesses and the greater economy.\u201d Rowland brings a science background to her imaginative and experimental art that is created in layers and celebrates the natural world. L Rowland Fine Contemporary Art is located at Riverview Station, Suite 101, Studio 250.<\/p>\n

Also at Riverview Station, impressionist painter Frederic Payet plans to showcase new artwork on Second Saturday. He paints and exhibits his work at Studio 101.<\/p>\n

Jeremy Phillips is the newest member at Pink Dog Creative. \u201cI will have open studio hours with live demonstrations of oil painting,\u201d he says. \u201cCome enjoy some tunes, the A\/C and a wall of diverse paintings to catch your eye and draw you in.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additional RAD events include demonstrations by Philip DeAngelo, Stephen L. Lange, Paige Houghton and Cindy Lou Chenard; a free Collage Make & Take<\/em> with Bridget Benton at 310 Art; classes at Ignite Jewelry Studios; and an exhibition of Stephen Fulghum\u2019s work titled Matter of Time<\/em> at Trackside Studios.<\/p>\n
