Art Walk: May 16 & 17, 2009

Stroll from gallery to gallery, chat with artists, or listen to a great jazz concert in Performance Park. Art Walk is a self-guided tour of galleries in the Estes Park area.  The tour offers a relaxed way to see what's new and interesting from all sorts of regional artists. The Cultural Arts Council of Estes Park (CACEP) produces a map of participating galleries, enabling you to make your own way at your own pace to galleries showing paintings, sculptures, pottery, weavings, jewelry, photography and limited edition prints. Several galleries will have artists on hand, demonstrating their talents. You can pick up a tour map at Performance Park or at any of the participating galleries.

Galleries will be open for the Art Walk on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
