EFT Report, New York: The Washington Square Outdoor Art Exhibit, currently in its 82nd year, began and flourished in the “Great Depression.” It is a juried, twice-a-year event, taking place in Greenwich Village, New York City, every Memorial Day Weekend and the weekend that follows, and every Labor Day Weekend and the weekend that follows.
Over 100 artists and artisans—including painters, sculptors, jewelers and glassblowers—are expected to exhibit their wares at the Washington Square Park Outdoor Art Exhibit. The event showcases fine artists and craft artisans from around the New York metropolitan area, the nation and the world. Attendees come from all over and are a cosmopolitan mix, including art lovers, tourists, faculty and students from the area's many schools and professionals such as interior designers.
It remains a venerated showcase for artists from all over the United States. Visitors come to view art in many media, and they cherish the opportunity to have a dialogue with the artist.
The show has its venue on University Place, and this spring will start at East 12th Street extending south along the east side of Washington Square Park ending at West 3rd Street. The southern end of the show encompasses Schwartz Plaza, (aka Bobkin Lane), between NYU's Shimkin Hall and Bobst Library.
