LAKE ELSINORE - Saturday in the Park

Studio 395 & the City of Lake Elsinore's Dia De Los Muertas Celebration on Saturday, October 29, 2016 was a resounding success!!
Lake Elsinore Girl Scouts DOD 2016 Badge
It was a perfect Autumn day (NO RAIN as fore casted), the vendors set up and had wonderful artistic products.  You could smell the food vendors delicacies wafting through the air; from Kettle corn to smoked ribs and hot dogs along with snow cones and lemonade.

The local Girl Scouts were a wonderful addition to this years' festivities.  They even created a new badge to add to their accomplishments.


A yearly favorite is Studio 395's Sugar Skull booth.  For a small donation kids and adults paint a skull made from sugar with colored icing, meringue, sequins and jewels.  A fun and creative way create an artistic souvenir of the days events. 



We want to thank everyone who participated in this event to make it the success that it was, especially our sponsors who stepped up to contribute in order to keep this beloved event continue.  We could not have done it without you.

More pictures to come.  Check back soon!!!

After much thought and discussion, we have determined that STUDIO 395 will NOT be organizing the Dia De Los Muertos Celebration in 2016. There are a number of reasons why but ultimately it comes down to this: we have just recently committed to a larger, long-term project, the ARTist Detour and ARTcademy here in Lake Elsinore and as we consider our needs in terms of human and financial resources needed to kick-off that project successfully over the next 90 days, we recognize that trying to also put on our DOD event might compromise one or the other. That isn't acceptable to us. The Detour project is a large part of the Mission and Vision of STUDIO 395 as it is a means to addressing the long-term needs our culturally underserved community, and it is cornerstone to revitalization of our historic downtown. For those reasons, it must be our priority.


We love the DOD celebration and it is our intention to pick it up again in 2017 but with the Detour location at the end of Main Street across from the City Park as the center of activity for that event. We definitely will feel the loss because we know the community loves the celebration and was well on the way to becoming a signature event for our city. We are still committed to making that happen but we know we need to spend the remainder of 2016 getting the ARTist Detour ready for workshops, art creation and sales and community events. We are very excited about this project and appreciate the City Council's and the National Endowment for the Arts' commitment to our vision to this creative placemaking location.
Thank you for your continued support of STUDIO 395. While this cancellation is a disappointment, more good things are coming!
