Attending the Art Walk is key and should be on your schedule. But it is really an introduction to the galleries in the area. They can be visited during regular business hours. This is important because I have scheduled open time during Week 5 (my furlough days). You should use this time to do a follow up visit of one or more of the galleries you discovered on the Art Walk. On your follow up, talk to one of the gallery staff. Ask questions about what's new, interesting and valuable. Do some mutual appreciation of one of the works on display. Then do a "follow up" posting on your Blog.
Week 5 is also the opportunity to visit museums in the area, including LACMA, the Norton Simon, the Pacific Asia Museum (Pasadena -- you can catch it along with your visit to the Norton Simon), The Getty Center (Brentwood) and the Getty Villa in Malibu. (I am not expecting you to get to all, but I am expecting you to get to at least one in Week 5 and to post your reflections in your Blog.
Once you have your Arts Colony, your Arts Colony Follow-Up, and your museum Blog postings, you have finished your required Blog work. It will then be possible for you to add one or possibly more Blog postings for extra-credit during the last part of the quarter.
