Celebrate Youth Art Month with the City of Greeley’s Tointon Gallery and District 6 Schools at the annual District 6 and Friends Art Walk, 5 to 8 p.m. on Friday, March 4 at 651 10th Ave.

This one-of-a-kind First Friday event offers a chance to experience visual art created by Greeley’s very own young creatives at various downtown Greeley locations—representing 30 area schools, including charter schools, and artwork from the University of Northern Colorado and Aims Community College art students.

The Tointon Gallery’s District 6 Display
In conjunction with the art walk, Tointon Gallery staff invite community members to the opening reception of its District 6 exhibit, featuring the work of Greeley Central and Greeley West high school students.

Enjoy paintings, drawings, sculptures, and more from these talented young, local artists, on display from March 4-21. The March 4 reception is free, open to the public, and includes light refreshments.
