Tips From The City of Wilmington on How To Art Loop

Step 1:

Review the many gallery options listed in the Art on the Town magazine and choose the openings you want to attend.

Step 2:

Map out your choices on the Art on the Town map found on pages 4 & 5 in the magazine.

Step 3:

Choose your method of transportation:

• Choice A. The Art on the Town shuttle is a free service that picks passengers up at 5:45PM and returns by 8:45 PM. Choose between a Downtown or Trolley Square Shuttle. Each shuttle does only loop of the designated route, therefore the shuttles can only be picked at the pick-up location.
• Choice B. Self-guided tours are a go at your own pace option and offer more freedom to visit openings on both the Downtown and Trolley Square loops as well as Wilmington Neighbors loop.

Step 4:

Collect stamps on the back of the Art on the Town magazine during the Art Loop to redeem for your choice of prizes. See back page of magazine for details.

Step 5:

Join us at the re:Fresh monthly after party.
