If you have never attended the Galveston Art Walk, then you need to mark Saturday, August 25 on your calendar now! This is when the Island’s downtown area transforms into a vibrant scene filled with artists, aficionados and those who just want to relax, stroll and get away from the hustle and bustle.

All of the the galleries and antique stores are open and many serve complimentary wine, cheese and other appetizers for gallery visitors. This is a great venue for artists to meet the public and showcase their latest projects plus many of these artists are on site to answer questions or take special orders.

Art Walk is located in downtown Galveston. The event begins this Saturday at 6pm and lasts until 9pm and most restaurants and bars stay open later to accommodate customers.
