Join us for a weekend of contemporary art at Villa Isis during the Highland Open Studio Tour!

Following our summer exhibition during Upstate Art Weekend, we're presenting a smaller Nordic–New York exhibition, featuring painting, sculpture, video and installations throughout the house and outdoor sculpture park.

Norwegian-born artist Lise Ellingsen will also open her studio, sharing new sculptures and works in progress from In My World the Animals Don't Eat Each Other ahead of her upcoming exhibition in Paris later in October.

Play the claw machine for a chance to win a sculpture! Ellingsen's traveling miniature gallery brings art and play together, giving visitors an opportunity to take home an original artwork.

Explore her Hel's Kitchen installation and enjoy complimentary hot Hudson Valley apple cider as part of Always Half Empty Cups.
