Once again, Montclair Art Council has persuaded a bunch of local art galleries to work overtime, and pass out free wine and munchies to perfect strangers. The occasion? A fabulous evening art tour in Montclair. Art lovers and midnight ramblers should plan to attend Montclair's annual Gallery Walk, this Friday, May 16, 6-9pm. Bring your checkbook, you may see something you'd like to take home.
If you think walking's a drag after a long work week, you can ride the Art Bus. Park free at the Montclair Art Museum and the Montclair Public Library. Then just hop on board, the Art Bus will take you to your Gallery Walk destination.
