Event | First Thursday Gallery Walk

Early fall is the perfect time to check out DUMBO’s monthly First Thursday Gallery Walk, taking place Thursday, October 5, 2017, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM.

NYFA invites you to join us for DUMBO’s First Thursday Gallery Walk on October 5. On the first Thursday of every month, the galleries of DUMBO stay open late, hosting special events and receptions. NYFA Gallery will be open from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM and is presenting a special evening of readings by NYFA staff members Mirielle Clifford and Chris Messer in conjunction with Off Time: NYFA Board and Staff Exhibition. 

The exhibition, curated by David C. Terry and Madeline Scholl, shows the work of NYFA’s board and staff who are not merely talented during their time working with NYFA, but in their time away from NYFA as well.
