Cascade A&E Launches First Friday App

by RENEE PATRICK Cascade A&E Editor

ArtWalk in Bend has taken on the festive air of an outdoor party, especially during the summer months when musicians and performers take to the streets, art spills out of gallery doors onto sidewalks and art lovers sip wine and wander the streets. August 2 will be no exception as Cascade A&E launches a new way to interact with local events, exhibits and galleries with the new Cascade AE App.

Join us for ArtWalk in the downtown OnPoint parking lot (corner of Bond and Oregon) as we celebrate Central Oregon’s amazing cultural and artistic resources. Over the past year we have been planning, designing and working closely with App developers, Five Talent Software, to create the mobile App.

Developed for Apple and Android devices, it features an interactive ArtWalk map, exhibit map and an extensive event calendar. Walk through downtown Bend and the Old Mill District and access exhibit details and links, and also upload photos and videos from your ArtWalk experience. You can also get your voice heard by voting on A&E’s my favorite category each month.

The interactive exhibit map will highlight monthly Central Oregon exhibits from Sisters to Redmond, La Pine to Prineville and all in-between, and our extensive events calendar is now accessible on the go. Access music, dance, literature, theatre, festivals, special events and more.

Download information will be available on: www.cascadeae.com or you can find us under CascadeAE in the Apple App and Droid stores.
