Once again, the public is invited to the annual Placitas Garden Tour to see some of the most fabulous gardens our community has to offer, each one featuring a working artist-in-residence on the day of the Tour.

Tickets and a map are available at PlacitasGardenTour.com or at the Placitas Community Library, where visitors are encouraged to stop by to view an exhibition of featured artists’ work. The nearly month-long exhibition is open to visitors during regular library hours as well as during a special open house on Sunday, September 7, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 pm, coinciding with the Garden Tour.

David and Karen Croxton, Katie Thomas, Lisa Avila, Laura Robbins, William O’Brien, and Tom Salazar were selected as this year’s participating artists. Their work includes wood turning and decorative platters, jewelry, beaded, whimsical wall-hung creatures, paintings, ceramic murals, and steel totems.

All artwork on display at the library will be available for sale, and a portion of the sale will benefit both the library and the Garden Tour.
