| Art on the Vine at the Historic Dr. Fisher's House |
According to Jessica Stafford Davis, founder of Art on the Vine and The Agora Culture, "Art on the Vine provides a major platform for contemporary artists of color to showcase their work. This event is one-of-a-kind because of our ability to bring investment grade pieces to the Vineyard for art enthusiasts at all levels." Jessica further states, "Not only are we highlighting museum-quality works, we are providing on-site educational opportunities for new and seasoned collectors, as well as choosing one talented artist for the first year of our newly established residency program."
The Artists in Residency Program is a four-to-six-week program in Martha's Vineyard for promising artists. The chosen artist will have an opportunity to return to the Vineyard, engage with the local community, showcase their work, and be featured at Art on the Vine in 2017. A portion of the proceeds from this event will directly support this residency program.
The following artists will be exhibiting and attending this year's Art on the Vine:
- Sheldon Scott
- Alexandria Smith
- David Rashid Ibata
