A revitalization tradition in many towns, First Fridays are meant to jump-start a “happening downtown” and draw community members of all shapes and sizes into a central location for an evening of music, art, food, and culture. First Fridays are our “fake-it-til-we-make-it” effort to provide area residents and visitors with a taste of the atmosphere we’d like to see in our downtown every single day!
Help us to bring hope to our city with a night of singing, dancing, feasting, and celebrating everyone you ever knew in one place.
We plan to bring back what makes each season of First Fridays so memorable: great bands on two different stages, local breweries and food trucks, craft vendors, children’s games and activities, and a great night out for everyone.
Four city blocks (the 100 block of N 4th St, N South St. and the Market St. Intersection) will be closed for the evening, in order for us to enjoy festivities in the street in freedom and safety.
This is something we do out of love, and we are grateful for any help we can get. Let us know if you have the resources to donate or time to jump in as a volunteer!
If you would like to apply as a food vendor, artist, or non-profit, please fill out the online application!
