Artists on the Avenue
Artists on the Avenue is the Langhorne Coffee House's Monthly Artist Series. Each month a new fine art exhibition is executed. On the first friday of each month, the artist(s) featured that particular month attends our opening reception for a meet and greet. Along with visual fine art, we also book eager, local performing artists for entertainment on the night of the First Friday reception. This First Friday night is always a nice night out in a casual atmosphere. In addition, in the warmer months, we have outdoor seating available.
About the show itself
Each art exhibit runs approximately one month and showcases local fine artists that work in many different mediums. We show both individual artists and groups.
All fine arts mediums are considered.
The opening reception takes place on the First Friday of the month from 6-10pm.
The pieces of art are for sale any day of the week. All sales are handled at the register and pieces will be marked sold. Prints from the bin may go home that night. Pieces from the wall must remain the duration of the exhibition. Pickup can occur a few days before the exhibition ends.
