Art a la Carte is a multi-gallery event offered by nine galleries and art organizations in Sullivan County. It features a map for a self-guided tour for a rich diversity of visual art for the cultural gourmet; and for the gastronomical gourmet, there are restaurants for every taste in the vicinity of each gallery.

Art a la Carte is offering free special exhibitions, programs and events from May through December, to enhance the gallery tours. Each gallery has selected one month during the year to schedule a special Art a la Carte event. For other events, check the individual gallery websites. A reproduction of the information card, special events, and local restaurants are listed below. Information is also on the Sullivan County Visitor Center’s website, www.scva.net/artalacarte.
