Downtown Traverse City celebrates local artists

 

The Downtown Traverse City Association will host the fall Downtown Art Walk, sponsored by ABC 29&8 and WTCM on Friday, September 18, from 5 – 9 pm. The public is invited to enjoy an evening of art, refreshments, food and music. Artists from the region and beyond will feature their works at exhibits throughout Downtown Traverse City.

Visit participating locations and check out the art scene from oil paintings and photography from space to glass bead making and floral arrangements along Front St., Union and the Warehouse District. Refreshments will be offered at various locations throughout the evening. Purchase a commemorative wine glass and a portion of the proceeds will benefit the Downtown Public Art projects.

 

The public has an opportunity to participate in a Public Art project throughout the evening featuring a gold theme in conjunction with the upcoming Dennos Museum exhibit, A River of Gold. Participating galleries will also be offering prize drawings throughout the evening. Walking maps will be available at each participating gallery and the Downtown Traverse City office.
