An Art Walk for All the Senses

July 1, 2023

Downtown Leland is turning into a 24/7 outdoor art gallery this week. Artist Sally Taylor is the founder of Consenses Walks, a national program that “takes the art out of the museum and turns every neighborhood into a gallery.” Taylor is partnering with seven local artists—including painter Kristin McKenzie Hussey, musician Joshua Davis, and sculptor Charlie Hall—to interpret one another’s different works and mediums to create a treasure hunt of art around town. Attendees will meet at the Old Art Building in Leland at 5pm on July 6 for the free event. (Which also comes with free ice cream—win, win!) Following the opening event on July 6, guided walks will be held weekly on Thursdays at 4pm at the Old Art Building. (July 13, 20, and 27; Aug. 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31.)
