Friday night Art Walks in Bozeman & Livingston
The Downtown Bozeman Association, downtown art galleries and retailers, and the Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture continue to present this summer’s Downtown Bozeman Art Walks. The Art Walks occur on the second Friday of the month from 6–8pm through September, and again in December for the “Winter” Art Walk. Upcoming dates are July 13th, August 10th, September 14th, and December 14th.
Participating businesses and galleries generally feature artists’ openings and receptions during the event and often provide complimentary hors d’oeuvres and refreshments. While you stroll from place to place, you will also be able to enjoy live jazz and rock music played by young musicians from the area. You can find these artists, ensembles, and bands at rotating locations including First Security Bank, US Bank, Soroptimist Park and the Emerson.
Art Walk maps are available at www.downtownbozeman.org and participating businesses and galleries. The Art Walks are FREE, open to the public, and will go on rain or shine.
But Bozeman doesn’t get to have all the fun! Livingston Art Walks are part gallery tour and part social gathering. An eclectic array of locals, out-of-towners, and random art enthusiasts arrive in hordes to check out what’s hanging on the walls and who’s who. Livingston Art Walks are held the fourth Friday of every month from 5:30–8:30pm through September. Upcoming dates are July 27th, August 24th, and September 28th.
