The 610 Open – Opening ReceptionApril 17 | 5:00–7:00 PM | 610 Arts Collective | Free
Join us for one of Ridgway’s most anticipated and celebratory art events of the year—the opening reception for The 610 Open.
This annual regional exhibition brings together artists from across the area in a dynamic, open-format show. With no theme restrictions—only a size limit—artists are invited to submit their very best work, resulting in a diverse and compelling collection that reflects the full range of creative expression in our community.
The evening kicks off public voting for the People’s Choice Awards, where visitors play an active role in recognizing standout pieces. Voting opens during the reception and continues throughout the run of the exhibition, with cash awards presented to the winners.
More than just an opening, this event is a true community gathering—filled with great food, conversation, and the opportunity to connect directly with the artists behind the work. Expect a lively, welcoming atmosphere and a gallery full of fresh, inspiring art.
