The Hays Arts Council is set to host the 32nd annual Fall Art Walk on Friday.

This year’s featured exhibit in the Hays Arts Council gallery is titled “e’Scapes” and features 52 paintings from 11 artists across the state of Kansas. Visitors to the gallery will see paintings of landscapes, seascapes, cloudscapes and open vista paintings.

“The whole theme this exhibit is escape,” said Brenda Meder, director of the Hays Arts Council.

There are several other events happening downtown, including an iron pouring demonstration, pottery throwing and live music at several venues.

Despite the less-than-ideal weather at the last few art walks, Meder says she’s confident the third time is the charm.

“Our fingers are crossed for good weather,” Meder said, “but rain or shine, there will be an art walk!”
