Walk Through the Arts

Most of the time, galleries exhibit artwork. At the annual “Walk Through the Arts” (this year on Saturday October 20, 2007 from 10 to 2), we put the galleries, and other creative people and arts organizations on display.

This free family event includes artist demonstrations throughout the campus of the Alliance for the Arts – plus – theatrical, musical, and dance troupe mini-performances in the Foulds Theatre and outdoors. There will be hand's on art activities for kids, chances to win art and gift certificates, and food and beverages will be available for purchase. 

All arts and culture organizations in Lee County are invited to attend and distribute information, tickets, memberships, and more!
