Art Walk Background
The Art Walk began as the idea of downtown businesswoman Judy Han, a patron of the arts. Han decided it was time to bring more art opportunities to Gresham. In 2001, with volunteers, Gresham hosted the first Art Walk, in which only 28 artists participated. Today the Gresham Art Walk lists over 140 artists and attracts over 12,000 people to the event!
