Well, okay, so Kalamazoo's monthly Art Hop is more for humans than any carrot-loving creatures, but feel free to practice your best bunny hop from one air-conditioned splendor to the next, regardless.And that, my friends, is the best reason to hit up the Art Hop this Friday, July 10th--air conditioning. Unlike art fairs, which, while they undoubtedly showcase a plethora of local artistic talent,usually charge a hidden fee of sweaty sunburns with a side of dehydration and blistered feet, the Art Hop gives you the same selection of homegrown art to feast your eyes (and wallet) on, without any of that outdoorsy stuff.
The participating galleries all host evening hours for the event, meaning you could even turn this free art-hopping extravaganza into a thrifty date, or a night out with your friends.
You could check out the "Midsummer's Night Dream" inspired glass collection at the West Michigan Glass Society and see demonstrations on the art of glass blowing while you're there. Or, go see what inspires the youth of today at the Annual Young Adult Show at the Black Arts and Cultural Center.
A full list of participating locations, gallery times, and the art shows they are hosting is available on the Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo website.
