Gallery Promenade- Fun and Free

The attendance for this great annual event is growing by leaps and bounds. Don't miss this year's Gallery Promenade! Here's another Southwest Louisiana event that is great for the whole family!

Not only is Gallery Promenade a great family event...it's a free event and in many locations in both Lake Charles and Sulphur.  Here are the times and locations

Gallery Promenade, the Arts and Humanities Council of Southwest Louisiana’s annual gallery and museum showcase, will take place on Friday, September 28th, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., and it celebrates the art space as both a local business and a cultural force. Gallery Promenade is designed to give residents and visitors of Southwest Louisiana an evening in the fall when galleries, art venues, and museums across the Lake Area work in a coordinated effort to open their doors and take part in an extensive promenade of current exhibits and local art.

Art spaces operate simultaneously as both a business and a center for creative thought and artistic progression in Southwest Louisiana, and Gallery Promenade is a celebratory event that encourages the public to travel gallery to gallery for a comprehensive and engaging experience of the diversity of Southwest Louisiana’s art and the many artists and art spaces that are further developing the region’s cultural economy.
