Studio V at Harper College: A True Hidden Gem

Harper College's Studio V is an art mecca in Palatine that few may know about. 

Local artists, not only from students and faculty at Harper, but also from people in area communities, are invited to display their art on consignment there. 

The art is juried, and the consignment arrangement is that 80 percent in sales go to the artist, and 20 percent goes back toward operatings costs of the studio. 

Art for sale not only includes traditional art, such as pottery, paintings and prints, but also handmade clothing, jewelry, candles, all natural lip balms and lotions, greetings cards and so much more. 

The prerequisite is that the art chosen to be displayed is handmade, and of very high quality. 

Check through the gallery of photos featuring a number of works of art, and look for upcoming highlights on Palatine Patch of local artists and more on Studio V, located in Building V on the Harper Campus at 1200 W. Algonquin Road.  

Summer hours are Wednesdays and Thursdays, 10 a.m. until 5 p.m.
