The event takes place on Friday, July 18, and will begin at 5 p.m. at ARTspace. (165 King St. W.)
Works by 43 ARTspace artists will be on display. The venue will also feature an exhibition titled Blue Balloon, which is a collaborative project with the Alzheimer's Society of Chatham-Kent and art therapist Krista Schneider. Blue Balloon honours the creative voices of individuals living with dementia.
At 6:05 p.m., the ARTcrawl continues down King Street West to Art and Heirloom Shoppe. (137 King St. W.)
