Over 60 local artists are being exhibited throughout the four vibrant neighborhoods of Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Wallabout, and Bedford- Stuyvesant for the 15th Annual SONYA Art Walk (formerly The SONYA Stroll). The self-guided tour of fine arts studios and alternative art venues is taking place on Saturday, May 17th and Sunday, May 18th.
