Behind
a sparse storefront on bustling National
Avenue rests a purely collective artistic endeavor
in Walker’s Point Center
for the Arts. The focus here is to celebrate the unique cultures of the city
and give an outlet for mostly local artists to showcase their works to an
appreciative community. The small gallery has two rooms
of hardwood floors that give the space a rustic, cozy feel. The natural light
that peers in through the large front windows accents a fine collection and
cross-section of local art with cultural and socio-political themes or
messages.
Open Tuesday-Saturday 12-5 pm.
