The “3rd Friday” Art Walk will feature the Jazz Trio of Shannon Monk (vocals), Joe Knight (piano) and Ben Scarborough (bass) at the Keyring Gallery (107 Locust) from 6-9 pm on Friday evening, July 15.  

The free concert accompanies the continuing art exhibition on display from the June Artists’ Competition.   The concert/exhibition is funded, in part, by a grant from the Texas Commission on the Arts.   The public is invited.

As a part of the “3rd Friday” Arts Festival, the Friday evening Art Walk continues to be a part of “3rd Friday”, with several downtown merchants joining in with individual sales, events and art displays.    

Some of the participating stores include Beauweevils, SayADream Studio, the Winnsboro Emporium, Art & Espresso, Liefie, Ladles to Linens, Silhouette Dressmaking, & Main Street Antiques & Collectibles.  

An “Americana” theme will prevail, with many stores serving refreshments.  
 
Friday evening music continues to be highlighted with Drew Kennedy at the Double C from 8-10pm.  Art & Espresso will feature music by Caleb from 7-9pm.    Come join the fun.

July 15-16 covers the monthly "3rd Friday" Arts Festival, with daytime hours from 10 am - 6 pm on Friday and the Art Walk from 6-9 pm.  On Saturday, the hours remain 10 am-5 pm.
 
The Texas Pistolaros will “take over” downtown with roving “shoot outs”, general mayhem and foolishness on Saturday, July 16.  The public can be a part of the festive action as they perform between 10am and 2pm.    From "cool jazz"  to "blazing shoot outs", the weekend has much to offer.
