More 3rd Friday Fling PR

The October 16 Friday Fling in the Springs is also the bi-yearly Art Stroll with special openings at many of our galleries. At the Art Space at 108 Dayton. enjoy a special exhibit of quilt art. Across the street at 100 Corry, Village Artisans is featuring the exhibit, Photos of the World & the Backyard by Kathryn Kerber. Always a popular destination during Art Stroll, “would you, could you” In A Frame at 113 Corry will be hosting a reception for Paula Womacks’ “Paintings in Wool” opening.

A very special feature of the evening is the public unveiling of “Flock of Hands” by sculptor and installation artist Olga Ziemska from Cleveland at 6:30. This new public sculpture is located in the front lawn of the Train Station on Dayton St. The “hands”, each atop a tall, thin branch, reach toward each other and collectively visually, reach towards the sky creating a sense of connection between human and nature, earth and sky, community and environment.

Continue your stroll around to Xenia Avenue to Art Happens our newest gallery in King’s Yard and Rita Caz Jewelry Studio in their beautiful new space.

On the east side of Xenia Ave. stop in at The Emporium for wine tasting and the sounds of Slipstream with Jeanne Ulrich starting at 6:30. Always popular is the beer making demo at Main Squeeze from 7:30 - 9:30 pm.

For a quieter experience, see "Capitalism: A Love Story" at the Little Art Theatre at 7 pm & 9:20 pm. End the evening quietly sipping a drink at the Sunrise Café Martini & Tapas Bar from 9:30 pm - 2:30 am or dancing to the sounds of Buffalo Killers at Peach's Grill starting at 10 pm with a modest cover charge.
