Meet Arturo Garcia, Painter on the Flatbush Artists Studio Tour This Weekend

Andy Novick sat down for a porch interview, heard above, with artist Arturo Garcia, who was painting the green house on Beverley Road between Westminster and Argyle.

“This is one of my favorite houses in the neighborhood,” said Arturo, who added that he was trying to finish it for the Flatbush Artists Studio Tour, which is this Saturday and Sunday, May 19 and 20.

“The interesting thing about this show is that you go inside of each house,” he said. “You can get a little bit closer to each artist.”

The tour is open from 12-6pm both days, and Arturo’s home at 1206 Beverley is one of the studios on the map, which you can download here.
