While Ellen Forney leads a team of Capitol Hill artists, residents and business folk in redesigning Cap Hill’s monthly art walk event into a bigger, better monthly event called Blitz (facebook group here!), there are still art walks to be had. Thursday night is April’s big to-do.

In a beta test of the new effort’s organization and community skill, the Blitz group passed along this handy listing of what you will find at various Hill locations Thursday night. The map is from CHS and marks all of the locations we know of that have art on the walls and are open to be part of the night’s festivities.

More CHS coverage coming on what Blitz is planning for summer and a new art-focused start-up in the neighborhood but, for now, start planning your art walk.
