Start the New Year off right - visit Art Walk on historic Flagler Avenue in New Smyrna Beach from 10am to 5pm, Saturday, January 23. Art Walk will include an Art of Wine Winter Wine Walk. Attendees can purchase a "wine tasting passport" to sample some outstanding wines at several locations on the avenue.

Wine tasting passports will be available at the tent at the northeast corner of Flagler Avenue and Cooper Street for $20. The passports will list the locations for the wine tastings and what wines or winery will be featured at each location. Passports will include 20 tasting tickets and a keepsake glass allowing attendees to select the wines they would like to sample in exchange for their tickets.

Be sure to get your Art Walk program wherever you see the blue and black flags with the white "gg" logo and get it punched at each of the sponsoring galleries for a chance to win the prize drawing. Jewelry of Joy, 301 Flagler will donate this month's prize. The other sponsoring galleries are Palms Up Pottery, 413 Flagler Ave, Galleria di Vetro, 310 Flagler, and Ta Da Gallery, 113 Flagler Ave.
