Photo by Samuel Caleb Johnson<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Downtown Asheville Gallery Walk, organized by Gallery M\u00e9lange, continues in September and October, with more than 15 local galleries participating. The event, featuring special exhibitions, open galleries and artist meet-and-greets, happens on the first Friday of each month, with the next occurring on September 5 from 5\u20138 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is critical for tourists to know that there are artists downtown as well,\u201d says Elliott From, owner of Artbeat Gallery &amp; Lounge. \u201cPeople can come in and watch me paint while looking at my art. Downtown is a great place not only for the food and local shops, but also the galleries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During art walks and regularly on Saturdays, Artbeat features live music by local musicians. From also has beer and wine available for purchase. He strives to create a comfortable vibe in his gallery. \u201cSince I\u2019m new to the scene in downtown, I\u2019m excited for the locals and tourists to know that I\u2019m downtown and that they can acquire original art from my gallery and at affordable pricing,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Although downtown was mostly spared physical damage from Hurricane Helene, the loss of power and water and the subsequent loss of tourism last fall was a blow to downtown businesses, according to Leslie Rowland of Gallery COR. \u201cOne of the reasons the downtown gallery owners collectively decided to start this art walk is to give locals and tourists a focused opportunity to support downtown businesses,\u201d she says. \u201cOur hope is that they will decide to shift their purchasing power away from big-box stores and online retailers and focus it on the rent-paying businesses that keep downtown alive and vibrant.\u201d Gallery COR will feature new Asheville-based artists as well as new work by its resident artists.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs an art town, it\u2019s so important to make sure that we are offering an event that anyone can attend, that is held at a time of day that is easier for working folks to get to and that encourages people to visit galleries that might not be their \u2018normal\u2019 fare,\u201d says Julia Mills, owner of American Folk Art &amp; Framing (AFA). In October, the art walk will coincide with AFA\u2019s opening reception for its fall show, <em>Midnight in the Garden of Good &amp; Evil<\/em>. \u201cWhenever we have opening receptions, we have some dedicated folks that make it a point to attend, but we always see a few people who stumble upon the event as they\u2019re out enjoying downtown,\u201d Mills says. \u201cBeing able to invite someone new into the gallery and give them a brief adventure of discovery is such a treat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Downtown artists are grateful that visitors are returning and showing their support, says Rand Kramer of Gallery M\u00e9lange, but business has not yet returned to pre-storm levels. \u201cIt\u2019s been inspiring to see the downtown art community come together,\u201d he says, \u201cunited in celebrating the remarkable art and artists who define Asheville\u2019s creative spirit.\u201d In September, Gallery M\u00e9lange artists will be on hand to talk with visitors and, in October, resident artist Jeffrey Burroughs will host a special Wine &amp; Shop event at the gallery. \u201cGuests will have the rare opportunity to hear Jeffrey speak about his meticulous process\u2014from sourcing exceptional gemstones from around the world to translating their natural beauty into his signature handcrafted designs,\u201d Kramer says. \u201cWith a glass of wine in hand, attendees can browse his latest collection, ask questions and experience the artistry and intention behind each exquisite piece.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Learn more about the event and participating galleries and studios at <a href=\"http:\/\/GalleryMelange.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GalleryMelange.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Downtown Asheville Gallery Walk, organized by Gallery M\u00e9lange, continues in September and October, with more than 15 local galleries participating.
