We’re so excited that this evening at dusk, we'll welcome the first Newport Gallery Night of 2012! Grab your gloves and lace up those walking shoes as the most artful night of the month returns with more than two dozen participating galleries both big and small. Get up close with tiles dating from the 16th through the 20th centuries at the Redwood Library, or taken in the highly-anticipated Fakes & Forgeries Show at Spring Bull Gallery. Take in the oil paintings by Andrew Nixon and Ann Daum at the Newport Art Museum. Bellevue Avenue, Spring Street, Thames Street, and The Point are just some of the areas you can gallery hop. Chart your course by visiting NewportGalleries.org for a list of participating galleries and don’t worry—you can pace yourself by strolling Gallery Night from 5-8 p.m. the second Thursday of every month February through December. You can also check out what the artists and artisans are up to in bucolic Tiverton Four Corners as you'll find an intriguing array of galleries, studios, workshops and events in this charming coastal community.
