Since Micropolis is located inside the Mohawk Harvest Cooperative Market, it is the perfect spot to start your walk. Grab a locally roasted coffee or a fresh snack to enjoy while you browse the gallery and chat with the cooperative’s member artists.


Stay downtown for dinner. Art isn't just for the eyes—it’s for the senses. In Gloversville, our local chefs continue the night's exploration, treating the plate as a canvas and using a flavorful palate of ingredients to create edible art. Here are a few places that are open Thursday night. For a full dining guide, visit www.downtowngloversville.org/eateries

  • The Railyard: Looking for comfort with a sophisticated twist? Head here for hearty dishes like shrimp scampi, chicken parm, or a tender filet mignon in an industrial-chic setting.

  • The Brass Monkey: A great gathering spot for a more casual bite, offering a solid selection of pizza, wings, and a welcoming atmosphere for post-gallery drinks.
