Studio Gossip: Maggie Duffy & Chris Jones Jr.

Get ready for an evening of art, drinks, and unexpected conversations at Studio Gossip, Dunedin Fine Art Center's monthly artist talk series hosted by Curator Danny Olda at The Moon Tower of Dunedin at Dunedin Brewery!

Part artist talk, part game show, and part podcast, Studio Gossip takes you behind the scenes of Tampa Bay's creative community in a fun, casual setting.

This month's featured guests are Maggie Duffy, an experienced arts journalist and Managing Editor of Creative Pinellas' digital magazine, and Chris Jones Jr., a contemporary oil painter known for his vibrant portraits and storytelling through art.

Forget the traditional gallery lecture! Expect candid conversations, funny stories, unexpected questions, and plenty of opportunities to join in.

Here's what's in store:

- Studio Stories: Hear behind-the-scenes stories, creative confessions, and personal experiences you won't find in an artist bio.

- Secret Show & Tell: Get a rare look at personal artwork, sketches, or meaningful objects from the artists' creative journeys.

- Ask Me Anonymously: Submit your burning questions and hear honest, unscripted answers.

- Lightning Round: Enjoy quick-fire questions, spontaneous reactions, and a few laughs.

- Post-Event Hangout: Stick around, grab another drink, and mingle with the artists and fellow art lovers.

Whether you're an artist, an art enthusiast, or just looking for something different to do in Dunedin, Studio Gossip offers a chance to connect with the local creative community in a relaxed and entertaining atmosphere.

Location: The Moon Tower of Dunedin at Dunedin Brewery, 937 Douglas Avenue, Dunedin, FL

Admission is FREE! RSVP is kindly requested.

Grab a beer, bring your curiosity, and join us for an evening where art meets happy hour!
