My work is driven by personal experiences. Experiences such as Loss, Lust and Spirituality, are utilized to create drawings, paintings, and sculptures. Materials such as rubber, flocking, reflective glass, and polyurethane, conspire with intuition to create a strong graphic visual as well as shape and unveil content. – William Donovan

The TriBeCa Open Artist Studio Tour is a free, self-guided tour of approximately 100 artists’ studios throughout TriBeCa. Bringing artists and the public together, it provides an opportunity for visitors to interact with the artists and see their artwork at the source, the artist’s own studio. An artist-run organization, TOAST has led a true metropolitan “grass roots” path. It began as an ad-hoc group of artists who wanted to revive a neighborhood art walk. Now a not-for-profit organization, it is still a grass roots effort, run by the participating artists. Neighborhood businesses and supporters supplement most of the needed funds not covered by the artists’ entry fees.
