2nd Friday ArtAbout

Coordinated by the Pence Gallery, the 2nd Friday ArtAbout is a monthly self guided artwalk exploring art installations and receptions at galleries, art co-ops, and businesses in Davis.

This free event offers art, activities, live music, and opportunities to converse with featured artists. The Davis Downtown Business Association (DDBA) sponsors a portion of the costs necessary to bring 2nd Friday ArtAbout to our community.

2nd Friday ArtAbout takes place on the second Friday of each month. Over ten participating venues host receptions that night, and more businesses in the downtown core are welcome to host an artist and participate in this event.

Discover local and regional talent, new artistic styles, and unique creations while experiencing the vibrancy of downtown. Come out with your friends and loved ones and savor this local experience.

2nd Friday ArtAbout approximately runs from 5:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. on the day of the event. But, each venue offers their own specific reception time. See the monthly 2nd Friday ArtAbout guide for specifics, available in print at the Pence Gallery and other venues the week of the event, and downloadable through the Pence’s website at https://pencegallery.org/events/artabout/. Also, be sure to follow the event on Facebook for up-to-date information at https://www.facebook.com/davisartabout.
