Whether you know nothing about art or love it, our Little Italy Art Gallery Tour is a fun and casual way to explore a great part of the city while socializing and making new friends and connections.  It will be especially festive as Little Italy is decked out for the holidays.

Little Italy is the city’s newest and very festive gallery area, full of exciting new gallery owners and the cutting-edge artists they bring in!  Highlights: (1) intensely imaginative and startling oil paintings, (2) delightful animations full of color and intriguing narrative, and (3) a fascinating room-filling artwork involving controversy, among 7 outstanding shows!

The Gallery Tour led by Rafael Risemberg with a Ph.D. in arts education finds the most innovative art, and leads you on an insightful, entertaining and affordable journey through the contemporary art scene. Rafael explains the art in ways that makes the experience meaningful to those who don’t know a lot about art as well as those who do.

Our tours take place no matter what the weather is like since we’re indoors over 90% of the time. You will be amazed at how much you will learn and enjoy both the art and the people on the tour!  You will visit several cutting edge galleries.

Following the tour many in the group will likely grab a snack or burger and beer/wine.

Your host will meet you inside of  136 Baxter Street near Hester Street  at 1 pm sharp.  Pay $30 cash, zelle or venmo when you arrive (please bring exact change if cash).  There are no bathrooms on the tour.  Please plan ahead.

DO NOT REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT UNLESS YOU WILL ACTUALLY ATTEND.

Can I come alone? Yes, most guests do! It’s a great way to meet new people.

What do I wear? Dress for the weather.  Be casual and comfortable.

What to expect: We are piggy backing on a larger tour.   We will have 10-15 from our group.  The age range for our people is 20s -40s ( the larger group is 20s – 60s).

How long does it last? The actual tor time varies.  Allow for about 2 hours especially if the group goes out after.
