WITH the loss of their old venue, artists Robin Wells and Tanya Cain Abbs will move their seventh annual open studio event to First Avenue Cafe in Kensington.
Wells designs contemporary handmade jewellery, using techniques including etching, anodising, embossing and gold lamination on silver surfaces, while Abbs’ focus is to create beautiful fabrics and linens using sustainable printing methods and water based inks.
Wells said Marilyn Lewis, the owner of First Avenue, opened the cafe with the vision to provide a creative hub where residents could connect.

“These events have always been popular within the community and as Kensington residents ourselves, provide a great opportunity for us to meet our neighbours.”
