Among the stops are the venerable Bentley Gallery (just settling into its new downtown digs), monOrchid (complete with new curator Justin Germain), and Willo North Gallery, curated by Pela himself. At each stop, the artists themselves will explain their work to the gathered crowds, offering an intimate look at creation and presentation.
