We invite you to ARTWALK GARDINER, Friday, August 16th from 5:00 to 8:00 pm. It will be a lively
summer evening of art and music. The artists and their works will be located in shops, galleries, artists’
studios, and other venues throughout Historic Downtown Gardiner. Enjoy live accordion music by Gray
Capin as he strolls along Water Street. There will also be a chance to win an original piece of art by artists
Christine Olson and Margaret Melanson. To participate, pick up an ARTWALK GARDINER map when
you arrive at the event and collect 10 artist signatures at 10 different venues. Then drop it off at the raffle
table at the park by Johnson Hall. Our next ARTWALK GARDINER event is scheduled for December
6th.
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.
