From 11 to 14 October 2019 at the Bedford Lofts

The artistic event not to be missed this fall!

From October 11 to 14, the municipality of Bedford will host, for a 4th edition, the Artists' Open House at the Bedford Lofts. The artist sculptor and glassmaker Gilles Payette will be the spokesperson for this fourth edition, which will bring together some thirty creators.

During the Thanksgiving weekend, the former Bedford plant, converted into a space of collective work, will be transformed into an art gallery. More than thirty artists and craftsmen will take part in by storming the building to present their approach and works to the public, who will then be able to exchange with them in all simplicity.

Sculptor and glassmaker Gilles Payette will be the guest artist and spokesperson for the 2019 edition.

Winner of numerous awards, he exhibits his creations in various galleries in America and regularly promotes his work through exhibitions. Visitors will be able to admire his glass sculptures cast in sand moulds, the result of a particular technique allowing him to play with transparency and colour.

The Artists' Open House is a unique opportunity to discover Bedford under a new day and wander through one of Brome-missisquoi's creative hearts. Enjoying locally of a high profile, this year the event can count on the support of the CLD Brome-missisquoi, Caisse Desjardins La Pommeraie and Bedford Lofts. A recognition which allowed the organizing committee to expand its territory and invite thirteen new artists !
