Fresno Arts Council Announces New Outdoor ArtHop Venue, Gallery on Fulton, Launching Thursday, July 3, 2025 during ArtHop.
Gallery on Fulton welcomes artists, makers, crafters, exhibitors, and performers to participate in ArtHop’s newest and largest outdoor venue on First Thursdays. Gallery on Fulton is a free, family-friendly space where artists and makers may exhibit and sell their work in a community setting. Surrounded by the city’s historic public art collection on Fulton Street, Gallery on Fulton celebrates the origins and evolution of ArtHop, showcasing the vibrant work of local artists and performers, and providing a dynamic experience for ArtHop attendees.
Gallery on Fulton takes place on Fulton St. from Inyo to Calaveras Streets from 5:00-8:00p.m. Streets will be open to traffic and display booths will be allowed on sidewalks. The monthly event is managed by Fresno Arts Council under a City of Fresno Special Event Permit. Artists and maker-vendors are required to submit an online application to reserve a space within the eight-block venue. Vendor and exhibitor guidelines and requirements are published on FAC’s website, and applications are available via Submittable. At Gallery on Fulton, the emphasis is on local artists and their original work; re-sale vendors are not allowed within the permit area. Gallery on Fulton welcomes cultural arts and social service organizations offering arts activities to reserve space on Fulton. These organizations must submit an online application and provide an example of the art activity they will present.
Mobile and pop-up food vendors are not permitted within the event space. Fresno Arts Council does not manage food vendors; mobile food vendors may set up anywhere their license allows outside of the defined permit area.
