Philadelphia: First Fridays
San Francisco has its First Thursdays, and Philadelphia has First Fridays.
Enjoy and celebrate Philadelphia’s art scene in Old City on the First Friday of every month. Sponsored by the Old City Arts Association, First Friday is an open house of over 40 of the neighborhood’s galleries, most of them located between Front and Third, and Market and Vine Streets. Most of the galleries stay open till 9 pm.
It’s a casual atmosphere, so leave all your pretentiousness at home. Serious art collectors, city dwellers, families and singles all show up for the festivities. You can check out the art, people, and the restaurants and bars, for a fun evening of culture and entertainment. The patrons are as eclectic as the galleries, and there’s bound to be something to amuse everyone.
Oh yeah, and I did I mention free food and drink. There is no charge for the event, or the receptions.
First Friday is held year round, rain or shine, on the first Friday of every month. Hours are 5-9 pm.
