January 17, 2020 is the next 3rd Friday in Downtown Salisbury! This month's event is hosted indoors only - so that means no artists and crafters outside on the street - but there is still tons to do and see in Downtown Salisbury! So bundle up, grab your friends, and head out for a night on the town.
Art lovers, be sure to stop by Salisbury Art Space for the opening reception of Small Treasures: Book Art and Small Works from 5:00 – 7:30pm. This show is made up entirely of locally submitted 2D and 3D works no bigger than 14 inches, asking that viewers zoom in to behold the beauty that comes in small packages.
The ancient expression of book art will also be explored during Small Treasures: Book Art and Small Works, from traditional to contemporary – come see examples of when the book is the art object complete with a special exhibit by local book artist and professor Sally Molenda. Salisbury Art Space is located on the lower level of the Salisbury University Gallery Building.
