Art Walk is the First Thursday night in Laguna Beach each month, with free wine, music, or snacks at most of the galleries, starting at 6pm. Park and ride the trolley, then walk the route. We like to start North at Jasmine and PcH and explore galleries along there, walking south until we get to the Laguna Art Museum (often with live music) then see how many more galleries we get. Here's the gallery map https://www.visitlagunabeach.com/things-to-do/art-culture/art-galleries/art-walk/
