This spring’s free, self-guided gallery tour is bigger and better than ever with a record 13 galleries participating – three of which are new to town. The MAC invites everyone to come and enjoy art, meet and mingle with fellow art enthusiasts and enjoy a glass of wine and other refreshments.

Park for free at the Montclair Art Museum (3 South Mountain Ave.) or the Montclair Main Public Library (50 South Fullerton Ave.) and take one of two shuttle buses to all the galleries. Those wishing to bike from gallery to gallery can join Bike&Walk Montclair outside the library at 6 p.m. The museum's galleries will not be open this evening.
