Despite the rain, the May Artwalk had a great outpouring of patrons from the community that came to enjoy galleries, music, and a sampling of food and drink at over 10 L/A Arts-curated venues with a total of 22 locations participating.

This second Artwalk L/A of the year offers a bigger lineup of events including the return of young Lewiston designer Sahro Hassan displaying her newest fashions in a live show at Dufresne Plaza, and additional musicians to exhibit their talents up and down Lisbon Street.

Last month marked many positive additions to the Artwalk event including a new online artist catalog of artwork for the public to view at www.artwalklewistonauburn.com. Over 20 greater Lisbon Street businesses and storefronts will open their doors and offer visual art galleries, live performances, and special exhibits to patrons. Patrons will have an opportunity to browse, enjoy, and purchase artwork before and after the event.
