December Happenings

During the month of December, Hatch Art House will be celebrating their 2nd anniversary by showcasing all 40 Hatch artists with gift giving art for $40 or less. As always, Hatch only represents Wisconsin based artists with the majority from the Madison area. Hatch also has an emphasis on upcycled and recycled material both in artwork and in the shop itself. The artist reception will be Friday, December 14th from 6-9pm. Many local artists will be in attendance to talk about their work. We’ll have sweet treats and festive drinks on hand.
This holiday season, remember to shop small businesses and stay local. Hatch features ONLY Wisconsin artists, 95% of which are from the Madison area. When you buy from Hatch you know you are buying local.

Welcome to Twenty-Twelve

Hatch is now thirteen months old. Whew…what a year 2011 was! SO many ups and downs in our wonderful city.

Here at Hatch, December was amazing…thanks to EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED US!!! Now, back to reality:)

Featured artist for the month of January, is Madison artist and crafter, Linnea Phillips of “Naystalgia Vintage Creations”. Linnea’s creations all incorporate some vintage and/or upcycled materials. Most items are one-of-a-kind and everything is unique. The idea is to upcycle materials to minimize our carbon footprint. Her creations include; Candles made with vintage glassware (soy wax, all-natural), bird houses made from cigar boxes and reclaimed hardware, tote bags and children’s items made from vintage fabrics, reclaimed switchplate covers with vintage paper and mittens made from recycled sweaters.
