A free of charge evening of art, discovery, and community!
Wednesday, July 16, 6:00pm till 8:00pm
We’re back for our annual Gallery Walk—and this year, we’re expanding downtown!
For the first time, the ADAA Gallery Walk spans member galleries in both Chelsea and Tribeca, as 56 of the city’s most vibrant art galleries open their doors after hours—inviting the public, free of charge, to an evening of art, discovery, and community.
The 2025 edition marks a significant milestone, uniting more member galleries than ever before across two of the city’s most dynamic and influential arts districts.
Adding to the festive atmosphere, many galleries will offer a range of special events, including artist talks, walkthroughs, film screenings, and other programs uniquely designed for the Gallery Walk. In the spirit of summer, ice cream trucks will be stationed in both neighborhoods, bringing a refreshing touch and fun place to gather during to the evening’s celebration.
