If you’re staying in the Warehouse District, one of the coolest things to do is stroll down Julia Street after dark looking in the galleries. Or, better yet, stroll down on a first Saturday when you can get free drinks.

Two blocks of Julia Street, between the Louisiana Children’s Museum and the historic Julia Row Townhouses, are home to a dozen or so art galleries. The galleries are street-front, with large windows, so after dark you can stroll down Julia Street looking at the artworks inside. The first Saturday of every month the galleries are open in the evening for an artcrawl, complete with complimentary cocktails. What’s so special about Gallery Bienvenu? Nothing, really (although I apparently liked the sign, as I took a picture of it without knowing it was going to be a waymark). The gallery is just one of several worth peeking in – it just happens to be the only gallery on Julia Street Gallery Row that is listed on the official tourism website.
