LEWISTON — L/A Arts has announced the return of Summer Art Walk L/A which will take place from 5-8:30 p.m. the last Friday night of every month from May through September. Art Walk L/A turns downtown Lewiston into an impressive arts district. This summer, L/A Arts will partner with more local downtown businesses than ever before. Over 20 Lisbon Street organizations and storefronts will open their doors and offer visual art galleries, live performances, and special exhibits to local community members and patrons.

L/A Arts will curate at least 10 such venues, including transforming multiple empty storefronts into arts venues. This year, L/A Arts will offer a new online artist catalog of artwork for the public to view on the Art Walk website at www.artwalklewistonauburn.com. All participating artists’ works, and the accompanying venues they will be displayed in, will be presented to give patrons an opportunity to browse, enjoy, and even purchase artwork before and after the event.

L/A Arts will also bring live arts performances back to Dufresne Plaza, to add to the energy, vibrancy, and multiple outstanding offerings of Art Walk L/A.

L/A Arts is accepting artist submissions for the Art Walk to be held on Friday, May 30. Each artist’s work is curated in one of the multiple venues, and displayed online for a small submission fee of $5. This year there is zero commissions on sold artwork, with the exception of a 5 percent payment processing fee. The deadline for submissions for the first Art Walk is Saturday, May 10.
