Tonight: Tour Newport's galleries -- for free

OK, I know what some you will say to this.

You're suggesting we go to Newport? Over the bridge? At night? In the summer? When the City by The Sea is already hosting a music festival in the mansions and the annual Hall of Fame tennis tournament? When all the tourists are there?

Yes, I am. So deal with it :)

It's Newport Gallery Night, when the city offers a couple of dozen choices on this second Thursday of the month. It's a free self-guided tour of art of all sorts: pottery, paintings, glass, textiles and sculpture.

And a big bennie. Even parking is free at the Newport Visitors Center, 23 America’s Cup Ave., and at the Newport Art Museum, 76 Bellevue Ave.
