It's quite possible that attempting to photograph all of St. Petersburg's Second Saturday art is a fool's errand. I mean, who is this magical person that can hit 40 galleries in four hours? If you do the math, that means you'd have six minutes per gallery. This is assuming it takes you literally no time whatsoever to travel between galleries. So when I hit seven galleries during the first Second Saturday Art Walk of 2019, I was really proud of myself. But I was even more proud of the St. Pete Arts Alliance for highlighting all the awesome art in St. Petersburg with this monthly event. Even seeing only seven St. Petersburg gallery experiences, you can see the city has a little bit of everything, from sculptures made out of flip flops to imminently affordable clay pots to high end collectible paintings. If your New Year's resolution is to start or expand your art collection, make Second Saturday your thing in 2019.
