Connie Bloom moves into new studio

BJ Alums got this email from former BJ staffer Connie Bloom, who has become a star in Ohio's fabric arts (aka quilt art) community:

Dear art quilt friends:

I am now the resident quiltmaker at Summit Art Space, which is next door to the Akron Art Museum at 140 E Market St.

I am enjoying the company of the other artist-painters and have my own lovely 350-square foot studio with a 16 foot wall of windows in which to create.

Please come visit during our monthly Artwalk, which is 5-10 pm Saturday and noon-4 pm Sunday.

There will be art for sale, snacks, great conversation and free rides from Lolly the Trolley to all the other studios in the art district.


Warmly,
Connie Bloom

Connie moved from her Red Light Galleries, 111 N. Main Street, next door to Luigi’s.

She is publisher/editor of QSDS (Quilt Service Design Symposium), a quarterly online magazine abut fabric art. Her works have been on display at Weathervane Community Playhouse.

She is married to Bob Shields. They have been together for more than a decade.
