This year, it will happen on February 7 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. – and it will be free! Open to the public, it champions the arts by providing gallery space that never turns local artists away. Its goal is to sell all the gallery's pieces each month so it can always start fresh with brand-new exhibitions.
