The Birmingham Art Crawl, an all-volunteer operated 501(c)3 nonprofit, is a monthly marketing event produced through partnerships among area businesses and residents to bring people to the cultural and historical center of the city and showcase Birmingham’s deep and energetic pool of creative talent. Art Crawl is the first Thursday of every month from 5-9 p.m., rain or shine. Venues stretch across downtown Birmingham including galleries, restaurants and bars, downtown businesses and more throughout the Historic Loft, Business, Arts and Theatre Districts. Art Crawl is a great way to meet local artists and performers, buy and appreciate their work, and be part of the rapidly growing art scene in Birmingham. An estimated 3,000 art enthusiasts attend each month to support around 50 local artists, musicians, and performers.
