Last Saturday Receptions:
Although not all galleries are open on Last Saturdays, it is
still a great time to come and see a show you missed or have
a more intimate reception where you can mingle with artists
and enjoy the art more thoroughly. Check with each gallery to
see if they will be open on Last Saturday.
