Maps are available prior to the Hop at Chase, Community Trust, National City, the Community Arts Center, and the Arts Commission office in City Hall. On Friday evening, maps can be found in each of the 17 Hop Stop locations, which will be designated by purple "Arts Event" banners.
None of the locations are far from Main Street. "Please don't let a few more steps keep you from the Boyle County Library, where five artists will be located, or the Heart of Kentucky United Way, where another four are set up," Nichols said. "You won't want to miss Constitution Square State Park where in Wilderness Trace Art League Gallery, Grayson's Tavern and the Museum Store you'll see the works of more than a dozen."
