Scarlet Cup presents “A Doll’s House”

Applications accepted for vendors beginning April 1, 2023
The Arts Commission is proud to welcome the Heritage Area String Program to our organization.
The Arts Commission will serve as the fiscal sponsor of this community treasure, joining the Scarlet Cup Theater, Danville Sings and the Pieceable Friends Quilt Guild, all organizations which make art available to our citizens in diverse ways.
Below, two HASP members perform in Perryville as part of our summer concert series bringing music to non-traditional locations in Boyle County.
Bruce Richardson of Elmwood Inn Fine Teas will welcome Hoppers from 5:30 – 8:00, June 11th.
Can’t Say Enough About It –
Gallery Hop 2021 has something for everyone!
When you have a lot to celebrate, you should! On June 11th the downtown will be hopping up and down and around the corners. The best strategy would be to put a chair in the car (or sling it over your shoulder), park in the area, make sure you have this newsletter with you, then eat, shop, and visit, until 8:00 when the chair will be needed for the Gallery Hop After Hours Concert with Power Play.
This newsletter can serve as your guide to locating artists and activities. Members of the Arts Commission Board will be available at the corner of Main and 3rd to assist you and update you of any changes to the guide. A table with simple and fun children’s activities will also be located in front of the Hub Coffee House.
I know where I will be on June 11th and I look forward to seeing you somewhere around town as we usher in the Great American Brass Band Festival in style. Enjoy shopping and mingling responsibly and we will all have a great evening!
Thanks to Louisville Gas &Electric and Kentucky Utilities Foundation for their support of the Gallery Hop. We appreciate the partnership with the Brass Band Festival staff and volunteers and the City of Danville in making this event go off without a hitch.

So, like, follow and share us on Facebook and check out what makes Danville and Boyle County a special place for art and artists. The postings will include links or information on how to contact the locations for any specials and up-to-date opening and closing details.
The Arts Commission thanks LGE&KU for support of the 2020 Gallery Hop.
Historic Constitution Square is the perfect shady spot for a surprise summer concert by the local dulcimer group.
Everyone should have a birthday parade! Barbara Hall, Director of Danville Sings, gets
