art-a-whirl weekend through our lens 🎨🥂

Three days of artists, local makers, creative energy, and a community that showed up in a big way. From discovering new talent and supporting local vendors to conversations shared over cocktails and bites, every corner of Quincy Hall felt alive all weekend long.

Thank you to everyone who stopped in, explored, connected, and helped make Art-A-Whirl what it’s all about.

See you next year ✨

When the vision becomes reality 🖤

THANK YOU to all of the wonderful makers who spent last weekend at the studio, as well as everyone who stopped by and joined in on the fun. Art-A-Whirl 2026 was one for the books! We’re already looking forward to next year!

Art-A-Whirl did not disappoint in 2026 (other than learning of the closing of Bauhaus Brew Labs). The buildings are so vast there is always a studio space and artist to discover. And much like the State Fair, the people watching is top notch.
