Newly formed Red Bird Art District

Downtown Sylvania might not be considered the epicenter of the Toledo-area’s arts scene, but the newly formed Red Bird Art District may change perceptions, making the historic downtown area a new arts destination. Initiated by Scott and Barb Hudson (Hudson Gallery), Dani Fuller (Art Director of the River Centre Foundation), and Rae Betz (Graphic Designer at LJ Creates), this new branch of the Sylvania Community Arts Commission plans to revitalize and enhance the neighborhood’s artistic energy. With two fine arts galleries in a single block, they are off to a great start. 

Take flight on Fridays

Spread your wings with the Red Birds for First Friday Art Walks and see art, shop, dine, listen to live music, and explore the area on the first Friday of every month. 

October’s kick off First Friday Art Walk will celebrate the developing district with 20+ creative spaces and restaurants
5-8pm, Friday, October 2. Downtown Sylvania

During the first walk, celebrate the grand opening of the River Centre Gallery, which will continue the legacy of the American Gallery by showcasing local and regional fine art. The grand opening will feature works representing the human form in Expressive Bodies, on view through October.
