All downtown galleries are participating in what will be a monthly event the 4th Friday of the month through Dec., 2006.
Tammy Hopkins, Executive

are a wonderful way to bring the galleries in a community together
to showcase regional and national artists. We hope the addition
of Gallery Walks will benefit all of downtown."
The galleries participating are Bluewood Gallery, Drew Deane Gallery,
Gallery on Main, Hollingsworth Gallery, King Street Heat, Number
