Craftsman Piano Company of Yonkers to participate in 2010 YOHO Arts Festival

Joe Hanerfeld, of Craftsman Piano Co., in Yonkers, NY has announced that his company will participate in the annual YO HO Artist Exhibit, in Yonkers, NY. The dates are Sat. and Sun. Apr. 18. There will be art and pianos, food and entertainment. In the past these events have been a big success with a good time had by all. 12:00 to 5:00 PM.

Every spring, the OPEN STUDIOS gives the public an opportunity to actually see where the art is made. Art enthusiasts and their families are encouraged to attend. In the studios’ relaxed atmosphere, the public will have a chance to discover that art is much more accessible than they thought. They will be able to interact with the artists and familiarize themselves with their creative process, materials and the varied range of works. Visitors may purchase artwork directly from the artists without entering the sometimes intimidating setting of commercial galleries, even though the artists are gallery-affiliated, have been exhibited internationally and are part of many collections in the United States and abroad.

In the last decades, the scarcity of affordable studio space has driven artists from SoHo and Chelsea. Yonkers, which is experiencing a Renaissance, is home to a thriving artist community. YOHO Artist Studios is the largest professional art community in the area.
