Photo Re-Cap of the Allston Art Tour

The ‘Allston Rock City Art Tour‘ was an immense success! There were 18 venues, more than 30 artists and nearly 200 pieces of artwork involved (and not harmed) in the making of the tour. Even though it was raining during pre-event set up, the sun broke through the clouds on Saturday and lit up Allston’s streets for the Art Tour! We were happy to see flyers in the hands of people weaving in and out of all the Art Tour venues. An enormous “Thank you!” to all the artists and locations for participating in the tour, and round-of-applause for “Allston Main Streets” for all the hard-work and diligence put into the preparation and execution – ArtVenue could not have been happier being a part of such a great event!

Here is a photo re-cap of the day!
