Art Hop is a typically quirky Ann Arbor event. Local artists on the historic West Side open their homes or studios to the public, and visiting artists share spaces in neighbors' porches, garages, yards, in Gretchen's House Childcare Centers I & II, or with local artist-hosts. The festive one-day event is in a walkable area with easy parking. Held in May and October, Art Hop is inexpensive for artists and FREE to visitors.
The idea for Art Hop grew up organically from a few local artists: Sophie Grillet, Laila Kujala, Susan Major, and Lucie and Larry Nisson. Sophie Grillet is now the organizer with indispensable support from Larry and terrific publicity by Leah McChesney.
