Broad Ripple Gazette vol 10 vol 9



First published in the Broad Ripple Gazette

Spring Gallery Tour
Broad Ripple
Friday, May 10, 2013
5:00 – 9:00 pm, all-ages, free


Woo hoo! Spring is here and the Gallery Tour is a sure sign that we made it thought the winter. There are 21 stops on the tour; some traditional galleries: Sigman’s, Hoosier Salon, The Indianapolis Art Center, Editions Limited Gallery of Fine Art, Fine Estate Art & Rugs, Artifacts, and Ashland Gallery and some not-so traditional: Flanner & Buchanan, Just Pop In!, Urban Optiks, Carpenter Realtors, and Marigold Clothing. 


All of the participating places will be open until 9:00, many offering snacks and libations along with the terrific art. This is a great chance to reacquaint yourselves with your neighbors after the long winter and soggy start to spring. I’ll be working at Marigold that evening. Swing in and say hello.
