Fans of visual art will be pleased to know that this weekend is jam-packed with art crawls and art balls, opening receptions and closings of shows. Tri-Star Arts presents The Art Ball and Art Ball Afterparty, fundraisers for the forthcoming Tennessee Triennial for Contemporary Art. Meanwhile, Downtown Nashville and Wedgewood-Houston both host art crawls on Saturday evening. It’s also the last weekend to check Zoolumination at the Nashville Zoo, so if you haven’t been already, now is the time!
