PR.com)-- Abstract thinking, glasses clinking, free admission, artist demos, and live music combine for Gallery Night on Friday, August 21, 2009 from 7-10 p.m.

Erie’s galleries offer unique gifts such as fine art, art classes, professional framing, memberships and more,” said Tammy Roche director of marketing and development for the Erie Art Museum. “Gallery Night was in part created to support local commerce.”
Allen Stoneware Gallery, Bayfront Gallery, Geary’s Studio 7 Gallery, Glass Growers Gallery, Kada Gallery, Rustic and Refined, Urraro Gallery and the galleries at the Erie Art Museum will host Gallery Night.
Always a popular way to get around Gallery Night, EMTA’s Bayliner will be providing free shuttle transportation from 7 to 10:30 p.m. Trolley maps and schedules are available at each gallery or by calling the Erie Art Museum at 814-459-5477. Allow extra time for parking downtown; State Street will be closed from 4th -14th Street for a Car Cruise-in.
