About this Event
We will leave at 5:00 pm from the Graduate Hotel, and return to the Graduate around 7:00 pm.
This tour will be led by Gallery Night Guide Rosemary Rocchio with Guest Guide Michael Rose. We will visit the following locations and exhibits:
- The Armenian Historical Association of Rhode Island (AHARI) explores the vibrancy of the Armenian community through the over 200 food-related businesses established and run by Armenians. With these companies, this still thriving piece of history is explored in their museum to highlight the contributions of the Armenian community to the state of Rhode Island.
- Galerie le Domaine at Domain Properties presents the work of Jamie Murphy Hlynsky, American painter and collage artist. With a background as a professional illustrator and propmaker, she also works in the fine arts with her paintings and collages, with many of her works being exhibited in several museums, galleries, and private collections.
- The Chazan Gallery at Wheeler showcases contemporary art for local, regional, and national artists to provide the opportunity to display their artwork and engage with the local community. The gallery will be presenting the last day of their All School Show, exhibiting the work of students of all ages.
- The David Winton Bell Gallery at Brown University presents a comprehensive survey exhibition of artist Barbara T. Smith. An innovator within the performance art movement of the late 1960s, Smith has long produced work that explores the self, sexuality, gender roles, physical and spiritual sustenance, love, life, and death. Assembling an expansive range of artwork and performance-related ephemera, the exhibition will survey Smith’s bold experimentation.
Half of the seats on the trolley or mini coach will always be available (first-come, first-served), completely free, to anyone who shows up on Gallery Night!
The other half of the seats are available to reserve in advance via Eventbrite. We ask that you donate $1 when you check out, for the convenience of guaranteeing your spot on the tour of your choice ahead of time.
Reserving Multiple Tickets? Eventbrite requires you to make a separate reservation for each ticket. Each time you put in an order, it's only for one ticket (even if you choose to donate more than $1). For example, tickets for 3 people would be 3 separate orders, each with a $1 donation.
Accessibility notes:
- Many of the Gallery Night art spaces are wheelchair accessible. However, the trolleys we hire for Gallery Night cannot accommodate wheelchairs.
- All tours involve some walking and some stops may include stairs.
- We invite wheelchair users to enjoy self-guided tours on Gallery Night, and have created some suggestions (make your own tour tab on our website) where we note which galleries are wheelchair accessible.
Some notes to help you out the night of the event!
- We recommend arriving to the Graduate 5 to 10 minutes before your tour time. One of our volunteers will be at a podium with a Gallery Night banner, near the main entrance, and will check you in and answer any questions!
- If your plans change, please remember to cancel your Eventbrite reservation so that someone else can enjoy the tour.
- Tours occasionally run late. We recommend allowing buffer time if you're planning on attending another event after ours.
We have other guided tours the same night! Go to our Eventbrite Organizer Page and scroll down, the other tours will be listed under "Upcoming Events."
