Akron Art Walk

Join more than two dozen artists today in Downtown Akron for the Downtown Akron Art Walk. On the first Saturday of each month, this event features hand-blown glass, pottery, ceramic, paintings, textiles, jewelry and more. Live bands will play too. The city of Akron’s free trolley service will be running the entire route allowing for flexible and painless parking. Plenty of galleries will also be having openings so be sure to check them out as well. The events start at 5 p.m., and most vendors will be opening up shop from 5 to 10 p.m. Galleries are located in the Northside District, North High Street, and East and West Market Street. The event is free. (Paige Magulies) downtownakron.com/enjoy/artwalk.
