St. Louis Art D Tour: Friday, 6 June 2008

The St. Louis Artists’ Guild and ArtDimensions of St. Louis are collaborating with over 15 art museums and galleries in St. Louis to present 3 fabulous nights of art appreciation, unifying the major artistic communities of the St. Louis metro area.

The St. Louis Art D Tour will take place THIS Friday night. Shuttles with live music and “seat” prizes (including restaurant gift certificates, Lumiere Place Hotel packages and more!) will shuttle people to galleries and museums in 5 main art districts of St. Louis: Forest Park, University City, Grand Center, Downtown, Clayton /Maplewood. These incredible evenings are free to the public. Another exciting feature: food and drink are provided at select locations.

SHUTTLE INFORMATION:

STEP 1: Choose a starting point from one of the participating galleries/museums listed below. OR Start at Lumiere Place Casino - park for FREE - IN THE GARAGE - and catch the shuttle at the main entrance to the casino. Start by 6:00pm in order to have time to stop at every stop, otherwise, you may have to skip some stops in order to make it back to your starting point.

STEP 2: Shuttles depart from each location every 15-30 minutes. Check the schedules at each stop and be sure to note when the next shuttle departs, so that you can be sure to move along and have time to stop at each stop.

STEP 3: Once you've made a complete circuit, join us at Lumiere Place for the After Party at Savoy Restaurant . There will be FREE appetizers and a cash bar, live art and a chance to view the $10million collection of art at Lumiere!!

STEP 4: Make plans to take the next ArtDTour on August 1. There will be new galleries on the tour and the returning galleries and museums will have new exhibits!!
