AKRON ART WALK With nearly two dozen participating galleries, eateries and drinkeries, which isn't a word, this monthly art walk will take place June 7. Each month the participating establishments are rotated, ensuring no two events are alike. The art walk stretches over the Northside District, North High St., and East and West Market St. and as a bonus, the city of Akron provides its free trolley service from 5 to 10 p.m. If there's one thing I've learned in my life, it's never turn down a free ride. Or was it a gift horse? Never look a free ride in the mouth? I don't know, maybe I didn't le...

Attention all amateur sleuths. You have an assignment. The risk is minimal. The reward is great. The time is now. On First Friday, your first stop needs to be at one of the studios in the downtown Canton Arts District (check the on-line map if you are clueless) to pick up your game card. Then follow the instructions, gum-shoeing around town in search of the usual subjects (you know them from the board game), as they will each have a clue to the Who Dun It. And, be sure to look, listen and stop everywhere including Evolution Art, the crime scene. It’s down the block from TRANSITIONS Galler...

GREAT ART at GREAT PRICES For the second year running, Anderson Creative is proud to present their December exhibit, DECK THE WALLS. They've asked 20 or so local artists to clean out their studios, empty their closets and just generally bring artwork that they're ready to part with at perhaps reduced rates. Then, to sweeten the deal, as a thank you to the artists and clients, for one month only, Anderson Creative agrees to reduce their commission rate to 10%, resulting in even greater savings to their loyal patrons. The result: tons of great work adorning the walls just in time for the holida...

For the 10-year anniversary of the September 11th attacks on our country, Anderson Creative and guest curator Dr. Fredlee Votaw have assembled a diverse and unique group of artists, all of whom will reflect upon the events of that day and how they carry a life of their own, differently in each of our memories. Drawing on work by adult artists who remember the day, 20-year-old artists who were schoolchildren when the attacks happened, and current 5th grade artists who've only heard the events described to them by other people, this installation will showcase the way that images, ideas, peopl...
