The Seventh Annual Colonial Place-Riverview Front Porch Art Walk was held Sunday, October 9th, from noon to 5 pm, throughout the historic Riverview and Colonial Place neighborhoods in Norfolk. Over 30 resident artists in these two historical waterfront communities converted their porches to art galleries, displaying their work for touring visitors and neighbors.

The Art Walk's mission is to showcase the many artists who live here and to celebrate the unique aspects of these classic, old-fashioned Norfolk neighborhoods as visitors tour at leisure, enjoying art, gardens, and architecture.

And the best part. It's free!

Exhibiting on the porch of the Lydia Roper Home, 127 E. 40th Street in Riverview was:

Former CPRV resident, Jack Callan is a self-described "accidental artist." Having no formal art training, he has practiced painting since 1995, earning several awards in his years of professional exposure. His work is inspired by poetry, and his desire to tie the arts of painting and poetry together.
