5:30 pm Trolley or Mini Coach Tour! with Gallery Night Providence

We will leave at 5:30 pm from the Graduate Hotel, and return to the Graduate around 7:30 pm. This tour will be led by Gallery Night Guide Larisa Martino and will visit the following locations and exhibits:

Rhode Island Center for Photographic Arts presents its Sixth Annual Spotlight Member Exhibition, a juried show featuring a collection of work by RICPA members. Also on view this month is Unearthing an Insane Past, a solo exhibition of new work by RICPA member Martha Wakefield. Wakfield’s body of work poignantly explores the complicated histories of asylums and carceral institutions. Opening reception: October 16th, 5-8pm during Gallery Night.

Anahid Ypres Studio, where you can get an inside look at the artist's space, & have the pleasure of seeing both in progress & finished paintings!

The Repair Atelier presents In the Making: Open Studio, featuring Jeffrey Boomer, Derek Bernstein, and Markus Berger. Opening reception October 16, 5-9pm, during Gallery Night.

The Chazan Gallery at Wheeler presents Past Tense / Present Visions: A Wheeler Alumni Exhibition—a celebration of creativity across generations of the Wheeler School alumni community. This special exhibition showcases works by alumni artists spanning a wide range of class years and artistic practices.

Half of the seats on the tour will always be available (first-come, first-served), completely free, to anyone who shows up on Gallery Night!

The other half of the spots are available to reserve in advance via Eventbrite. We ask for a donation (minimum of $1) when you check out, for the convenience of guaranteeing your spot on the tour of your choice ahead of time. Your donations help keep Gallery Night going!

Reserving Multiple Tickets? Eventbrite requires you to make a separate reservation for each ticket. Each time you put in an order, it's only for one ticket (even if you choose to donate more than $1). For example, tickets for 3 people would be 3 separate orders, each with a $1 donation.

Accessibility notes:

• Please note that there is no elevator, only stairs, for Anahid Ypres Art Studio and the Rhode Island Center for Photographic Arts
• Many of the Gallery Night art spaces are wheelchair accessible. However, the trolleys we hire for Gallery Night cannot accommodate wheelchairs.
• All tours involve some walking and some stops may include stairs.
• We invite wheelchair users to enjoy self-guided tours on Gallery Night, and have created some suggestions (make your own tour tab on our website) where we note which galleries are wheelchair accessible.

Some notes to help you out the night of the event!

• We recommend arriving to the Graduate 5 to 10 minutes before your tour time. One of our volunteers will be at a podium with a Gallery Night banner, near the main entrance, and will check you in and answer any questions!
• If your plans change, please remember to cancel your Eventbrite reservation so that someone else can enjoy the tour.
• Tours occasionally run late. We recommend allowing buffer time if you're planning on attending another event after ours.

We have other guided tours the same night! Go to our Eventbrite Organizer Page and scroll down, the other tours will be listed under "Upcoming Events."
