This mobile art exhibition and street fair will take place outside of Gallery 40 on Cannon Street, Sunday, August 9th, 2:00-6:00 PM. A second event is planned for September 12-13th, a two-day celebration to coincide with Poughkeepsie Open Studios. The street will be closed for Summer Sundays, a free block party that includes live music, food trucks, beer and spirits from King\u2019s Court Brewing Co., and games for kids and adults. Award winning arts educator Carrie Decker will also be giving hands-on art workshops for kids of all ages in her Crazy Over Art Van.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">PK Art Mile aims to bring art directly to the public, drawing visitors to the area, temporarily activating public spaces into vibrant community assets. This is in alignment with the city\u2019s goals to strengthen and revitalize the downtown area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">PK Art Mile is the recipient of a 2026 Statewide Community Regrant award by Arts Mid-Hudson, and is sponsored by the local businesses, artists, and cultural community of the area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">PK Art Mile hopes to create an exciting, and recurring cultural event in downtown Poughkeepsie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"color_37 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><span class=\"color_37 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">We are looking forward to seeing you!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"color_37 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">The organizing committee:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"color_37 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">Paola Bari, Suprina, Jaime Ransome, Jeff Aman, Terelui\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">Antoni<\/span><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">, Samantha Palmeri, Pope Phoenix<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U-Haul Truck Pop-up Art Galleries on the streets of downtown Poughkeepsie!
