South End Art Hop — More than 30,000 art lovers and partiers flock to the annual South End Art Hop, which runs along and near Burlington’s Pine Street and includes dozens of open studios, gallery events, food vendors, music indoors and out, and other miscellaneous fun. On Saturday night, Strut, the fashion show featuring local designers, regularly sells out. It’s the only ticketed component of Vermont’s largest art event, put on by the South End Arts and Business Association and staffed by hordes of T-shirted volunteers.
