Tonight is Gallery Night Ithaca

A wonderful way to spend an evening out in Ithaca: Gallery Night Ithaca, sponsored by the Downtown Ithaca Alliance, is held on the first Friday of every month. It’s a walkable tour of art shows set up in galleries, shops, book stores, restaurants, and hotels.

Tonight’s October 6 edition from 5–8 p.m. at 23 different locations includes some exhibitions capturing the life of Ithaca and Tompkins County.
