May 5, 2018 - Ready for another art-themed race around town?
We're only a couple of weeks away from the fifth edition of the Gallery Rally! The unique manifestation (Reli po galerijama in Croatian) assembles galleries in several Croatian cities, creating a unique artistic urban map that aims to put local artists and exhibition spaces in the spotlight.
This year's edition of the Gallery Rally will take place in Zagreb, Rijeka and Pula. On Friday, May 25, you'll have a five-hour window (5-10pm) to visit as many galleries from the list as you can, with the ultimate goal being to cross every last one off the list. You'll be provided with a special map at the starting point; you'll get a little sticker at every gallery you visit. Stick it on your map, and if you manage to drop by every single participating venue, you'll be awarded with a certificate of achievement for outstanding contribution to culture.
While there's no preset schedule or itinerary you need to follow, keep in mind there's a fixed starting point and finish line in each of the cities this year:
Zagreb: HDLU -> Garaža Kamba Gallery
Rijeka: Kortil Gallery -> SKC Gallery
Pula: HUIU -> Kotač
If you end up filling your entire map with stickers, you can collect your certificate at the galleries listed above by 10:30 pm.
