Our Story

Past, Present, and Future

ART NIGHT OUT, is a unique social and art experience. The concept is to explore galleries on opening night, in the presence of artists, with a group of friendly locals and/or visitors. Art night out has explored cities in the USA and Europe ever since 2019. We meet at a meeting point and walk to up to 4 galleries with openings; we are usually served wine and other beverages. Over 2 hours we look at art, and experience the local art scene among friends, new and old. I am ELIZABETH MATTHEWS, your artist guide. With a PhD in Fine art (University of Ireland, Galway 2017), I organize the event with the help of my assistant, and pre-walk the route, to make sure we can do it in the 2-hour timeframe. I have been doing this in Dublin, Lafayette, Dallas, and San Diego intermittently, and it's a lot of fun for all! I also organize plein air sketching outings in these various locations, and in Paris, France, whenever my travels take me there. So welcome to Art Night Out, I look forward to seeing you there!
