Hill Farms Art Walk
to
Lest you think that art only happens on the east side, due to the several art walks that take place there yearly, we call your attention to this up-and-coming west-side art walk in the historic, Mid-Century Modern Hill Farms neighborhood, which features more than 35 artists in the usual array of media. Unusual genres to look for include James Shulkin’s mixed media sculptures and Anna Castaneda’s custom sugar cookies, yes cookies, which are truly works of art (although you will probably eat them anyway). The walk is roughly bounded by Mineral Point Road, South Rosa Road, Segoe Road and Sheboygan Avenue, so if you walk it, you’ll get your steps in. A map and more info is available at jamesshulkinarts.com. Rain date is Sunday, May 7.
