Art Walk would not be complete without a stop at Juan's studio. His space is intimate and his work is edgy, versatile and inspiring. I am a big fan!

I am true fan of the First Thursday Art Walk and Always make it a point to visit Juan Alanso's space. It has become the highlight of the walk for me, and as I have discovered, many, many other art lovers as well. Every month I am blown away with Juans work. It's always a thrill to see what is new and wonderful coming from this amazing artist! Always a great time - NOT TO BE MISSED!

As someone who has admired Alonso's paintings for many years, it is a real treat to visit him at his studio these days and see his latest works. It is also a great place to visit with what is always a wonderful group of people. It is always the highlight of my art walk - inspiring and visually stimulating.

First Thursday art walks have changed greatly over the years and the connection with the artist has become minimal. Visit Juan Alonso's space and you will not only get the feel for who the artist is, but immediately connect with his passion and vision. This is a rare opportunity to meet the artist and see where it all happens. It is a great experience!

Make the journey down the brick stairs to Juan Alonso's, one of the few open studios on the First Thursday Art Walk. Meet the artist, enjoy his work and engage in conversation with an eclectic mix of folks. Always a happening spot and a glimmering highlight to the night!
