2023 Open Studios

It’s still to be confirmed, but I’m hoping the Chashama Open Studios at Brooklyn Army Terminal will be the weekend of October 21-22.  This is the weekend of “New York Open House” where many places open their doors.

If it is then, I’ll be able to be there in person!  send me a note at miranda.maher.art g…com and I’ll put you on my little mailing list.

Recent Exhibitions

It’s been a busy Spring and Summer this year.

From August 1 through September, two pieces from my “Visions Obscure my Vision” series will be on view in Denise Bibro Gallery’s “Outer Boroughs” online exhibition.  I’ll add a direct link when it’s available, but to view “Visions…”
