For artists, the moment when the inspiration strikes to create something truly special can never be predicted. That's why it is crucial that every artist be as prepared as possible for the muse to strike his creativity by having all of his necessary supplies and tools on hand from The Art Store. This is the largest selection of art supplies in central New York and offers items from Princeton Brush, Xacto, Golden Acrylic, Prisma Color and hundreds of others. So make sure you're ready the next time you are moved to create by getting everything you need from the Art Store!
Your relationship can be considered an artistic work-in-progress. So it makes sense that you both can draw some creative inspiration from the various items that await you at the Red House Arts Center. This highly unique arts facility in Armory Square features year round presentations in contemporary theater, independent and documentary film, music and fine art. Also, aspiring local, national and international artists frequently have their work spotlighted in this innovative yet intimate venue.
In addition to being a venue filled with some truly compelling interactive exhibits, the Erie Canal Museum is filled with some deep history of the area. It all began back in the 1800's when “weigh lock” buildings were located along the length of the canal to determine the toll that boats would pay to pass through between Albany and Buffalo. This museum is located at the halfway point between the two, and it is even more dramatic as it is housed in an authentic National Register Landmark weigh lock building. In addition to the aforementioned exhibits and attractions, there are also several fascinating artifacts and audiovisual presentations that tell the story of the canal's hard-fought construction.
