The afternoon of Aug. 23, locals sauntered through Forest Park streets and alleyways, enjoying artwork from jewelers, painters, photographers, potters and more.
The 11th annual Garage Galleries, put on by the Arts Alliance of Forest Park, celebrated art from over 100 art vendors based in Forest Park and surrounding areas in more than 40 garages.
The Garage Galleries event was conceived in 2014 by Forest Park artist Amy Turilli as a way to showcase local artists in a casual setting — by transforming Forest Park garages into temporary galleries for public viewing. Since then, the event has massively grown, from just two garages to nearly four dozen.
As in previous years, the locations of the garage galleries were dispersed through an online, interactive map, and print maps were given to attendees.
