Admission is Free.

With the heat of the summer coming full swing a city wide art crawl is upon us. Join local galleries as the city comes alive for an evening of gallery hopping installations and performances. This year will be bustling with 15 local galleries as well as independent projects by Anna Banana, Marcel Andreas Reimer, and Studio 1219.

The Off the Grid map and program will guide residents and visitors alike to a variety of exhibits at participating galleries, publicly accessible studios, and various sites throughout the city. As an official en mass open house event, these exhibits are on offer for a free late night viewing. The event will wrap up at Open Space (510 Fort St.) from 11p.m. to 1a.m, with a special meet and greet, and free live music by Listening Party.

There will be a free shuttle bus driving  between 5 of the major stops on the crawl every 45 minutes - enough time to check the jive and catch the next cruiser to the next Hot Spot!

BUS SCHEDULE

Off the Grid Art Crawl promotes Victoria’s contemporary arts by staging an opportunity for the public to engage with the galleries, collectives, artists and volunteers that keep this community thriving.

The Off the Grid Art Crawl is a not-for-profit event, which relies on sponsor and volunteer support.
