Art you can walk through
One local art lover is hoping to show area residents that there is beauty all about them.
Erica Hornburg-Cooper, director of The Gallery School of Pottstown Inc., worked with several local organizations to design a self-guided Art Walk tour of art and architecture in Pottstown.
Banners will be placed around the borough to draw attention to stops on the tour. Brochures and maps area available at the Downtown Improvement District Authority office at 139 E. High St., the Tri-County Chamber of Commerce offices at 152 High St., and at the Gallery on High.
Sites on the tour are encouraging ArtWalk participants to take the tour on the first Saturdya of the month, to tie in with Pottstown's new First Saturday's event, which features crafts, performances and more in the Smith Family Plaza.
The ArtWalk is supported by The Greater Pottstown Foundation, the Gallery School of Pottstown, The Hill School, and PDIDA.
All aspects of the arts are covered throughout the ArtWalk. Stops on the walk feature art and architecture, while others feature dance and cuisine. Bicycles are welcome on the ArtWalk as well as bike lanes and bike racks are located along the sites.
The businesses and stops along the ArtWalk include JP Design Studio; the Smith Plaza and Fountain; High Street Music Company; Company Cakes; Borough Hall; Positively Pasta; The Brickhouse; Dada Gallery; Village Productions’ Tri-County Performing Arts Center; The Very Best; Churchill’s; 16 High Street Gallery; The Farmers Market; SwingKat Dance; Henry’s; Virtuair Studios; Pottstown Library Veteran Sculpture; Angelina’s; Potts Family Cemetery; The Hill School; Funky Lil’ Kitchen; Bill Mason Photography; Schuylkill River Heritage Association; Riverfront Park Trials; Pottsgrove Manor; and Manatawny Park.
The Hill School’s portion of the ArtWalk offers an outdoor tour of its architecture on First Saturdays. All of The Hill buildings’ descriptions, as well as instructions for the tour, are in The Hill School’s ArtWalk brochure, placed right outside the Center For The Arts at the parking lot level entrance.
If it is not a First Saturday, participants are asked to register for The Hill campus tour inside the CFTA at the Boyer Gallery, where guests will receive a Hill ArtWalk tour badge. Please note that the Boyer Gallery itself will not be open for the ArtWalk on Saturdays.
