**Sprinkler zone in Harmony Lot returns!**
This season Gallery Walk will run May through December with a few things to note. Every first Friday from 5-9 pm we hope you’ll swing on down to Downtown Brattleboro for galleries, live music, food trucks, Brattleboro Flea, interactive art stations. You never know what will pop-up or who you’ll see at Gallery Walk! For months May-Oct we will close Elliot Street and Harmony Lot to traffic and we can all enjoy a block party that is ALL about art & community. For Nov & Dec it’s all about the galleries and the stellar exhibits they have planned for you! No raindate this year- Gallery Walk is rain or shine.
DBA (Downtown Brattleboro Alliance) has a new office! You can find us at 57 Elliot Street, the old Artrageous location. DBA is tasked with keeping downtown VIBRANT through programs like Gallery Walk, The Bloom Program, and so much more. Visit us at brattleboro.com or stop in and say hello- we can’t wait to meet you! AND every month at Gallery Walk we are partnering with BDCC for Welcome Wagon at our new office, a mixer for new to VT residents with light refreshmen and mingling.
The Gallery Stroll: As tradition demands, one piece of the Gallery Walk pie is strolling gallery to gallery enjoying their world class exhibits. They are all walkable in downtown. We have 16 stops on the list, each will be open to the public and free to attend.
