This year marks twenty-six years since the first Art Across the Marsh studio tour. Rob Lyon and fellow local artists, Ghita Levin and Donna Rawlins Sharpe, started the now yearly event, and it has grown from three participants to twenty locations with over thirty artists represented.
Rob has been organizing the weekend tour since the beginning and has seen many changes over the years to the tour and to his own artistic practice. He plans to step back from organizing the event after this year and is enthusiastic about new people bringing new energies and specific skills to the planning and delivery of Art Across the Marsh in years to come.
Here’s the story below:
