Doylestown Art Days Starts Thursday

In just a few days, Doylestown will turn into one giant art gallery.

The second annual Doylestown Art Days celebration is slated to start Thursday. Festivities go through Sunday.

During the Art Days event, about 80 of Doylestown’s merchants will be paired with more than 100 local artists, including painters, photographers, musicians, performers and more. The self-guided walking tour will include maps that will be available for pick-up at the Doylestown Bookstore, Patricia Hutton Galleries and Siren Records.

“Each place of business is featuring selected artists and their work, bringing support and attention to the arts and commerce in Doylestown, a community which embraces the visual and performing arts. The town is being turned into one giant art gallery,” event organizers tell Patch.

The event is organized by the Doylestown Alliance, in cooperation with local galleries, merchants, art organizations, artists and local schools.

A kick off reception will be held Thursday from 5-7pm at The Doylestown Historical Society Public Park.
