ARTober Kick-Off Event *coincides with the Bangor ArtWalk
Bangor Arts Exchange
193 Exchange Street, Bangor
5-8 pm, Friday, October 6
The kick-off event will be held in the new Bangor Arts Exchange (BAE) building and will be the public debut of this exciting new space. A great deal of foot traffic is expected because of the excitement about this significant downtown development and since the kick-off will coincide with the ARTwalk in downtown Bangor. There will be a free reception and performances at the Bangor Arts Exchange, including student art, cultural, and/or humanities work.
The ARTober kick-off will occur simultaneously with the Downtown Bangor ArtWalk. The ArtWalk event is quite extensive and includes a free reception and tour at the 91福利 Museum of Art (40 Harlow St.).
