NEW EXHIBITS OPEN IN WILLIAMSBURG FOR NOVEMBER’S EVERY SECOND FRIDAY GALLERY CRAWL SPONSORED BY AT&T
New shows at Devotion Gallery, Pierogi, and Cotton Candy Machine join exhibits at perennial favorites Like the Spice Gallery, Causey Contemporary and many others for November’s Williamsburg Every 2:nd Friday gallery crawl on Friday, November 11, from 6–9 p.m., presented by AT&T. Seasoned and budding collectors, artists, gallerists, community members and tourists alike join galleries for opening receptions, artist discussions, performances and refreshments.
A guided tour of the neighborhood galleries will be led by Stephan Fowlkes, Arts Editor, The New YorkOptimist, and will leave from Like the Spice (224 Roebling St.) at 7 p.m. During the gallery crawl. Williamsburg Every 2:nd and AT&T will continue the “Learn to Collect” project, which invites attendees to create their own “collections” by photographing artwork with their smartphones and uploading the pictures to the Williamsburg Every 2:nd Facebook page. The individual whose collection comprises the greatest amount of artwork from the most galleries will be awarded a smartphone.
Maps of the art walk will be distributed at participating galleries, local businesses and the Bedford and Union Square L stations.
