I have been going to the art crawl for a few years now, it's a really great event! All of the galleries have openings and always have a show to check out, plus performers and other special events going on throughout the night.
The art crawl happens on every second Friday of the month. This month is Supercrawl, a bigger version of what usually goes on. They have permission to block off James St., and there will be three stages with a bunch of free shows, as well as a few afterparty shows and a lot more to check out.
I will be there for a reception for a show I helped organize at Arts Hamilton with the Hamilton Youth Arts Network. We'll be checking out the rest of Supercrawl as a group and anyone is welcome to join us, just meet us at the opening at Arts Hamilton by 8pm and we'll be heading over.
