ArtWalk Projects

ArtWalk was created to make Lexington Center more vibrant by displaying artwork in the shop windows, with a secondary benefit of bringing more foot traffic to our local shops & artists.  Since then, the  ArtWalk organizing committee has also catalyzed a number of public art projects, including the giant numbers that celebrate the turning of the calendar.

ArtWalk, the community art exhibition, happens each fall and is open to all artists from Lexington and beyond.  Anyone interested should sign up for the MCA newsletter to receive the Call for Artists early in the summer.

In 2015, the Munroe Center for the Arts got together with the Lexington Center Alliance to brainstorm ideas to enliven Lexington's downtown.  This led to the annual ArtWalk where local artists' work is displayed in shop windows.  Since then, the committee has grown and the brainstorming has grown.
