Celebrate Spirits, Art & Wine at the October First Friday Art Walk

It’s nearly the first month of October, which means that fall is in full swing and a new First Friday Art Walk will soon grace the streets of La Jolla.

If you’re new to the First Friday Art Walk, it’s an annual event celebrating all things art in downtown La Jolla. Attendees will be able to sip, snack, and stroll their way through some of the best galleries in the Jewel of San Diego.

The theme for the October First Friday Art Walk is “Spirits, Art & Wine,” which each participating gallery can interpret in their own way. You may see some spooky spirit art while getting to enjoy light refreshments and wine.

The art walk kicks off at 4 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 6 and runs through 7 p.m.

Best of all, galleries stay open later than usual during each First Friday Art Walk, and the October iteration is no different.

You’ll find a list of galleries participating in this month’s art walk below.

• Art in Framing
• BFree Studio
