The River North Gallery District spaces are banding together again to host their traditional mid-summer gallery walk on Friday, July 12 from 5–8pm. Afterward, walk attendees are invited to enjoy cocktails and al fresco dining at River North's many restaurants. 

A July gallery walk has been around in the district for many years. This time of year galleries are eager to invite collectors and visitors to the city  on self-guided tour of  spaces located on Huron, Superior, and Wells Streets, while meeting artists, curators, and gallery staff. 

The Mid-Summer River North Gallery Walk is free and open to the public. Maps are available at Addington Gallery (704 N Wells St.)
