Here are the details:

The theme for the June 17th Lodi Art Hop is “Midsummer”/Nature-themed. We encourage artists to bring work that can be tied into the theme if possible. 

The Art Hop will include 12 artists showing/selling work, a kid’s art gallery, interactive art for all ages, performances, and exhibits at Double Dip Gallery, Ruby’s Bakery, the Lodi Library, and the Lodi Community Art Center. The Lodi Art Hop is put on by us (the Lodi Arts Foundation) and funded by the Lodi Arts Commission and the City of Lodi. We are so honored to put on this free event for the community and to create more opportunities for local artists to connect.
