Because the annual two-weekend, self-directed trek of artists’ studios and pop-up galleries all around the sunrise side of the city is one of the brightest cultural highlights of each year – and maybe you know some of the folks involved? – that’s why this information’s important.

And you can find that intel, that list of all the artists to be included in 2017’s iteration of the beautiful beast that is EAST, right here.

Those creative worthies and what they’ve lately wrought via various artistic practices will be what you can witness during the Saturday-and-Sunday of November 11-12 and 18-19 this fall. And of course the whole sprawling enterprise will kick off with that legendary Due EAST soiree-and-exhibition thing Big Medium hosts – on Thursday, Nov. 9, 7-10pm.

Lot of ground to cover, citizen, and you know that a consortium of the planet’s top scientists has determined that time is speeding up, right?

So buy some good shoes, maybe oil the chain of your favored bicycle, prepare early for this immersive opportunity.
