Stroll the cobbled streets and gas lit alley ways to discover the works of well over 500 artists this Friday evening during the final French Quarter Art Walk of 2011.

All galleries of the French Quarter (between S. Market and Tradd, and Meeting and the waterfront past E. Bay.) will be open from 5 to 8 p.m. with artists on hand and refreshments. Translation: get ready to get your art and wine on.

Here's a handy map showing all the participating galleries.

Also, be sure to swing by the Blind Tiger to check out the unveiling party for the 2012 "Censored" caneldar in which thirteen local creatives have dressed themselves in their art to benefiting the chART Outdoor Initiative & Gallery.

For further inquiries, give the French Quarter Gallery Association a ring at (843) 722-1944.
