Stroll the art galleries of historic Eureka Springs, April 14, 2012.
The Second Saturday Gallery Stroll starts up on April 14 and runs through December 8, 2012. Each month highlights different artists with exhibits and receptions. It’s a wonderful time to browse the many art galleries in downtown Eureka Springs, admiring art.
