On Friday, September 10th, from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.

(Kittery, ME) When Drift Gallery owner Ali Goodwin took a peek at the calendar of events for Kittery in September, she quickly realized that all of her neighboring galleries had really great things happening. She made a few phone calls, and within hours had gallery owners and artists signed up to participate in an organized art walk around Kittery on Friday, September 10th from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.

“Kittery is such a vibrant community, full of really talented people and great galleries. It made sense that at some point there would be enough of us to put an art walk together. It’s a great opportunity for the community to come out and see what the Kittery art scene is like.”
