Additional Fridays




We have exhibited for five Fridays thus far in Downtown Crossing's Art Fridays Event on Summer Street in Boston. We have been received well and have made numerous new friends.



We have been asked by the Boston Improvement District to display on additional Fridays throughout their season and have accepted starting June 17th and June 24th. Other Fridays will be posted both on our website and Facebook.

Please come visit Tico Art, the other great local artists or listen to the live music throughout the day.

Art Fridays Featured Artist of the Week: Fred Drew

This week's Art Fridays Featured Artist is Fred Drew, owner and founder of Tico Art Products, which specializes in handcrafted puzzle boxes.





Several years ago, while visiting Costa Rica, Fred was introduced to Costa Rica's culture of artisan woodcrafters. He developed a fair-trade, eco-friendly collaborative partnership with his "amigos, compaƱeros y trabajadores," with whom he develops his puzzle box prototypes every year. Fred will next be at Art Fridays on May 27; please email fred@ticoartproducts.com for more information.
