We will leave at 5:45 pm from the Graduate Hotel at 11 Dorrance Street, and return to the Graduate around 7:45 pm.
This tour will be led by Gallery Night Guide Barbara Zdravesky.
This is a walking tour - make sure you wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather! We will visit the following locations and exhibits:
AS220 Project Space’s exhibit explores Bridges, a new book by artist Lara Henderson. Combining rainbow paper, overprinting, & images of cascading waterfalls, Henderson conveys the transmuting power of water.
The Gallery at 134 Collaborative / Mathewson Street Church presents an exhibit on the work of Paul Everett. Everett’s work uses real and imagined landscapes that frequently skew perspective to take the viewer on a journey and experiment with sight. In this show, he will have a mix of works in painting and marker drawing.
RISD Museum. The RISD Museum has a variety of different exhibits on view. On the Gallery Night tour, you can get a taste of the many amazing exhibits that the museum has to offer!

Accessibility notes:
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 page) 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.
