The Morgan Fine Arts and Film Center (MFAB) hosted its 14th Studio Open House on October 1, 2016 from noon to 10PM. There were 250 guests.
Morgan ran a shuttle from the “L” at Bedford and the “G” at Nassau to and from the building. Beer, wine and food were served.
The Event was coordinated to coincide with the Bushwick Open Studios. A catalog was published and passed out at the door.
The next Studio Open House is scheduled in May; The Building will participate in the Greenpoint Open Studios.
Credit goes to Shane McAdams for his help in scheduling the event and to Marta Wlodkowska for coordinating the participants and putting the catalog together.
The pictures below were taken early in the day, before the onslaught of guests; photographs by Peter Buchman.
