Evening Art Gallery Tour of Downtown Durham
Friday, June 16 at 6 pm.
Join us for a summer evening tour of downtown Durham’s hottest art galleries. We will meet up at 6 PM at the rooftop bar of the Durham Hotel for a glass of wine or beer, included in ticket price, and from there we will visit five galleries including, Pleiades Gallery, 21C Durham Hotel, Durham Arts Guild and Art Council, Through This Lens, and the new Artisan Gallery at 305. The owners will be on hand to welcome us with complimentary wine and educate us about their current exhibits. Many of the artists will also be on hand to explain their works.
Our tour guide for the evening is Dan Ellison, a member of the board of directors of The Durham Arts Council and chair of the Durham Cultural Advisory Board, and an arts attorney. Dan will share his knowledge of the past, present and future Durham art scenes as we tour the downtown gallery area.
Also, as we walk to the galleries we will be serenaded by street musicians who perform on third Friday evenings in Durham. This will be an entertaining and educational evening for all art lovers.
The tour group is limited to 20 people so order your tickets ASAP.
Members: $25 Non-members: $35
