Drop in and explore Chattanooga’s dynamic art scene! The 10th Annual Gallery Hop will take place on Saturday, November 3 from 11-6pm featuring 15 galleries and artist studios in and around downtown.

The mayor’s Proclamation: “In recognition of the extraordinary impact that the visual arts have had and continue to have on Chattanooga, I, Andy Berke, Mayor of the City of Chattanooga, declare October 29-November 3, 2018, as Visual Arts Appreciation Week.”

Coordinated by a collective of arts professions, this popular event celebrates its 10th year as an innovative way to introduce residents and visitors to the city’s artistic community. It also opens the Holiday shopping season as a day-long celebration of the visual arts: an event that invites the public to visit and support local galleries and artists’ studios.

A self-guided experience, Gallery Hop 2018 is a flexible event that ccommodates both the distinctive character of each venue as well as the varied schedules and personal preferences of the visiting public. Because art galleries and artists’ studios radiate a uniqueness that defines their creative visions, individuals will engage with the visual arts in different ways at each space to ensure visitors experience the diversity and richness of Chattanooga’s visual arts scene.

A map listing the locations of the galleries and studios will be available at all participating arts venues. For more information, call 423-596-2358 or email: kaosart@gmail.com.
