According to data provided by Downtown Vision Inc., about 4,000 people visited Downtown Wednesday evening for Art Walk.
January is historically a less than ideal month for the event because of cold and sometimes rainy weather, but the 2013 series started with mild weather, clouds and no drizzle.
Eighteen artists set up exhibits in Hemming Plaza, considerably fewer than in spring and summer months, when more than 100 artists and crafters often participate in Art Walk.
The next First Wednesday Art Walk is scheduled 5-9 p.m. Feb. 6
