Tuileries Road Tuileries Road Tuileries Road offers original work in both performance and visual arts, focusing on the Toledo area local and regional artists. Concessions will be handled by Chef Claude, offering both food and non-alcoholic drinks. Since this is an all ages show, no alcohol will be offered. The participants come from a wide array of art groups in this area, offering a lot of opportunity for the groups to meet, connect, and possibly work together in the future. There are currently very few venues in the Toledo area where local artists can meet with each other.
Most artists feel they are on their own in trying to bring their work to an audience.
In reality, there are many groups that might be able to help. By combining genres and art mediums, Tuileries Road provides a connecting point for local artists. The workshops allow more experienced artists to help those just starting out, and increases awareness of the opportunities in the city, as well as opportunities for future work and cooperation. Most venues do not provide the opportunity for visual or performance artists to show their work unless they already have a substantial following. It is difficulty for an artist to achieve that following if they can t show their work.
