WELL STYLED | ART WALK<br />

display certainly managed this perfectly: I<br />

could feel the single-digit temperatures as I<br />

took in a wintry scene with snow blanketing<br />

the foothills of a mountain; I was immersed<br />

in the peace of a pastoral scene, felt the stillness<br />

in vase of roses.<br />

At Paderewski Fine Art & The Sportsman’s<br />

Gallery on King Street—a much more<br />

subject-focused gallery than the others I<br />

visited—I was transported to exciting natural<br />

spaces to join a duck hunt. Wilderness<br />

scenes, handsome hounds and outdoor life in<br />

every setting await visitors.<br />

There were more than two dozen patrons<br />

inside a string of King Street galleries at one<br />

point—a lively crowd perusing collections,<br />

filling their glasses, looking more closely at<br />

jewelry and artistic dinnerware. Every wall is<br />

an opportunity to start conversation.<br />

While these galleries are open during<br />

business hours welcoming patrons from all<br />

walks of life, the First Friday Artwalks offer<br />

an accessible and comfortable way for you to<br />

dip your toe into the art scene and personally<br />

gave me an appreciation for what these fine<br />

art institutions offer to the city.<br />

Whether the Friday Friday Artwalk is<br />

your destination or simply an inspirational<br />

detour to your evening out downtown, this<br />

peek into <strong>Charleston</strong>’s world-class art scene<br />

is a gem, and not to be missed. •<br />
