On one end of the spectrum is the Pizzuti Collection, which opened its doors to members to present a preview of the newly renovated gallery space and opening exhibitions. At the other end of the spectrum, on the same spring afternoon and just two and a half miles east of the Pizzuti Collection, the fourth installment of Rooms to Let was held. While these two events presented obvious differences in terms of scale, scope, permanence, and resources, the love of art and the commitment to provide access to it linked them in common cause.

While the familiar warehouse-turned-art-studios type of venue has been done before, two important things set Junctionview apart from many others. First was its community of artists willing to open their arms beyond their own circles and networks and collaborate with anyone willing to get involved. Second was its wide variety of public events that created a level of openness and friendliness so that it was not an uncommon sight to find young professionals, CCAD students, retirees, corporate leaders, politicians, young families and everyone else intermingling at the day-long Agora art festival events. All of that comes to a close next week as the lights go out forever in Junctionview. The artists who have studio space there are finishing their move out by the end of April, and the building is scheduled for demolition starting in May.
