10th Annual Fall Gallery Walk - Press Releases

Tuesday, October 27, 2009

Autumn brings not only spectacular colors in the trees this time of year, but in the shops and galleries of Old Town Manassas as well. The 10th Annual Fall Gallery Walk in Old Town Manassas is scheduled for Friday, November 6 from 6:00PM until 9:30PM. Historic Manassas Inc. has once again collaborated with the artists and merchants of Old Town, hosting artist receptions at 15 different locations throughout Old Town. Take a leisurely stroll in the autumn air and enjoy refreshments at the various host locations, several of which will have live musicians. It’s a unique opportunity to meet the artists in person and discuss their work. Balloons mark the shops and galleries on the Walk, and maps are available at each location. You can also download the map from the Walk’s website at www.manassasgallerywalk.com and from Historic Manassas, Inc.’s website calendar at www.visitmanassas.org.
