Spring Open House/Arts in Bloom Weekend at the Royal Port, May 18th & 19th!

Happy Spring!  Royal Port is getting the shop ready for the upcoming Salem County Arts in Bloom, Studio Tour through Salem County, May 18th and 19th.  We are Site no. 19 on the map. Artists from all over Salem County are coming together to share their studios and artwork with the public for a two-day, county-wide event. It will span many locations throughout Salem County, NJ.This increasingly popular event offers visitors an opportunity to see the spaces where local art is created while exploring Salem County’s beautiful countryside. This year the Royal Port is hosting 4 artists, Yvonne Mucci, Amber Ayars, Ron Wilson and a new addition Jennifer Bell.  Their Paintings, Photographs and Turned Wood pieces will be on display and for sale at the Port! Ron will be part of Dig into Arts!  This offers hands on activities for the entire family.  Ron will allow the kids to work with antique woodworking tools to shape a creation out of wood.  The printed tour guides, with maps, are currently available for pickup at the shop as well as that weekend. The guide is also available online. As part of this year's theme, Hidden Treasures, we are also hosting a special exhibit of 6 artists called Panelrama '19.  This exhibit spotlights 6 artists that utilize early door panels to paint on or use to display their artwork. They purchased the panels from the Royal Port. The idea came to me as I thought about the number of customers, who are artists, repurposed the panels for use with their artwork. That is how the exhibit Panelrama '19 was born!  Artists, Joan Berkey, Jen Bell, Mark Bair, Zina Brown, Loni Wylie and Joni Squillaro will showcase their pieces. The pieces will be on display and for sale throughout the weekend.  As always the shop will be filled with new inventory!  We will be offering cold drinks, snacks and treats. Join us for this great weekend. Enjoy Spring and the upcoming Summer season. Add us to your travels!
