The fall art season kicked off this past weekend, and exhibitions continue to open the
rest of September in area gallery centers and institutions. The fall kick-off is perhaps the most well known focal point of the city's visual arts calendar, as it offers a chance to get back into the galleries, to meet artists, mingle with friends and to experience what is new. It also reminds the public of how much there is to experience in our local creative community.

More events and venues are regularly being added each week.
