ARTWALK GARDINER Returns for its 17th Year

GARDINER, Maine — ARTWALK GARDINER- August 18th, 5 – 8:30 pm. 

We invite you to join the Gardiner creative community for a lively summer evening of art and celebration featuring unique works by blooming and established local artists, ranging from painting, printmaking, photography, ceramics, handmade books, jewelry, textiles, and sculpture. There will be something for everyone! The artists and their works will be located in shops, galleries, artists’ studios, and other venues throughout Historic Downtown Gardiner. Enjoy live traditional Irish music performed by Will Woodson and Caitlin Finley. There will also be a chance for someone to win an original piece of art made by one of the ARTWALK GARDINER participants for anyone who visits 10 or more event locations during the Artwalk! To participate, be sure to pick up an ARTWALK GARDINER map when you arrive at the event. Our next ARTWALK GARDINER events are on August 18th and December 1st. 

  ARTWALK GARDINER was established in 2005 by Artdogs Studios in collaboration with a handful of artists from the Gardiner area. Their mission is to encourage community appreciation of the arts, connect local artists to the general public, create sustainable networks that support local artists, increase awareness of local arts organizations, and foster the creative economy through regular exhibitions and events in historic downtown Gardiner. Since its inception, ARTWALK GARDINER has drawn hundreds of visitors to Water Street to enjoy these delightful evenings.
