InContext's Crown Heights, Brooklyn Artists' Studio Tour

Sunday June 12th, we will travel to the Crown Heights area of Brooklyn to visit artists George Boorujy, Selena Kimball, Matthew Northridge,and Aaron Wexler.

We will meet at 2 pm at The Pulp & The Bean Café at 809 Franklin Ave, (between Lincoln Pl & Eastern Pky), one block from the Franklin Avenue 2/3/4/5 stop on the train and finish with post-tour drinks at hidden gem Bar Olivino, (899 Fulton Street, between Clinton Ave & Vanderbilt Ave), which will be featuring drink specials and complimentary snacks for our group, at around 5:00pm.

Several of the artists have studios in The Monti Building, the oldest brewery building in Brooklyn. This efficient building has radiant heat, the electricity is generated by the solar paneled roof and also has a working apiary producing honey. The Monti was restored and renovated by Big Sue, LLC, green architects, who also live in the building.
