Most artist residencies stay invisible until the show at the end. Hudson Gardens runs its the other way around: Dayna Copeland's studio is open to anyone who wanders in, and she talks about the work while it is still unfinished.
Copeland works in collage. Open studio hours run noon to 4 PM and visitors can see pieces made across the residency and ask how they came together. The garden lists the residency studio among its regular programming rather than as a ticketed event.
Both the open studio and garden admission are free, and the grounds are open sunrise to sunset every day, so this works as a short stop or a long afternoon. Hudson Gardens is at 6115 South Santa Fe Drive in Littleton with on-site parking.
