Art figures prominently in the event calendar this week. Miki Boni’s “Facescapes” is on view at In-Town Gallery, Area 61 Gallery has hung the work of Jeff Delude and Townsend Atelier is launching a weekly series of In the Studio sessions with a rotating lineup of artists.

TOWNSEND ATELIER

Townsend Atelier owner Peggy Townsend says one of the things she has missed most during the coronavirus pandemic is inviting visitors into her East 11th Street studio to watch artists demonstrate their creative process.

“Always fun and informative, watching artists work never gets old, is enlightening and deeply satisfying,” she said.

So she has devised an alternative. Starting Sunday, Sept. 27, Townsend will host a series of In the Studio virtual artist talks and demonstrations.
