Patrick Gulke, local artist and Bainbridge Public Library staff member, has assembled “the art reception of the century,” set to unveil at the library for this First Friday Art Walk Friday, June 5.

“It will be a group show that includes many, many interesting and local artists and there will be impromptu poetry writing and other interactive elements to the festivities,” said Rebecca Judd, Bainbridge Public Library branch manager. “Usually, the library holds its art walk reception from 5 to 7 p.m., but we think it will be so packed and lively that we’re extending it until 8 p.m.”

The library is located at 1270 Madison Ave. North. Call 206-842-4162 for more information.
