SEPTEMBER AT ARTWRKD
NEW WORK. NEW WAYS TO GATHER. MORE TO DISCOVER.
Fall is underway at ArtWRKD, and September brings new exhibitions, an expanded online gallery, workshops in the upstairs Third Space, and a night where Bucks County history gets retold through poetry, storytelling and original music.
Come see what’s happening.
NOW ON VIEW
PAUL DEERY + KIMBERLY “BERLY” ORT
Our September exhibitions bring together two distinct artistic voices and practices, continuing ArtWRKD’s commitment to presenting original work by artists whose ideas, materials and stories invite us to look again.
Visit the Exhibition Space at 126 - 128 South State Street, Newtown and spend some time with the work in person.
KIMBERLY ORT — NOW ONLINE
CAN’T MAKE IT TO THE GALLERY? THE WORK CAN COME TO YOU.
Kimberly “Berly” Ort’s work is now available to explore through her ArtWRKD Online Gallery.
Ort’s mixed-media figurative work is driven by emotion, connection and the shared experiences that move through our lives. Her practice has evolved from traditional portraiture into expressive abstract figures incorporating mixed media on paper.
At the center of the work is something simple and human: the desire to connect.
Explore Kimberly Ort’s work online, discover available pieces and bring original art home.
COMING IN OCTOBER
SCULPTED FORM A Solo Retrospective of Renzo Faggioli
Opening October 3 at 6pm
This October, ArtWRKD presents a retrospective celebrating more than five decades of work by Italian-born American ceramicist, sculptor, educator and master craftsman Renzo Faggioli.
Moving between vessel, sculpture, figure, function and form, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to experience the evolution of a remarkable artistic career.
SHOW & TELL
THE DOAN OUTLAWS
Saturday, September 19 | 7:00–9:30 PM ArtWRKD | 126 South State Street Tickets: $30
History doesn't have to stay behind glass.
ArtWRKD's Show & Tell History Series reimagines the stories that shaped Bucks County through the artists and storytellers of today.
Our first installment takes on one of the area's most notorious stories: the Doan Outlaws—the Bucks County Loyalist gang connected to horse theft, espionage and the legendary 1781 robbery of the Bucks County Treasury in Newtown.
The evening brings history into the room through poetry, storytelling and original music, including Michelle Townsend presenting poetry inspired by the Doan Outlaws and Clint Flack telling their stories.
Part performance. Part history. Entirely ArtWRKD.

The upstairs Third Space continues to grow as a place for learning, experimentation and making.

ARTWRKD IS BECOMING SOMETHING BIGGER.
Exhibitions. Education. Artist development. Performance. Gathering. Experimentation.
What began as an exhibition space is continuing to evolve into a larger creative ecosystem—one built around the belief that artists and creative practice matter to the health of a community.
Come upstairs. Come downstairs. See the work. Take the class. Hear the story. Meet the artist.
There is always another way in.
