The need to see art in person and to physically enjoy art together with fellow art lovers is understood and appreciated. However, in-person Art Walks are currently on hold until large group gatherings are absolutely safe for every person.
Until then, we can fortunately enjoy the opportunity of online programing and in-person viewing Fridays 5–8pm, Saturdays and Sundays 1–5pm until further notice.
