From 6 Pm to 9 PM each month on the first Friday, from April to November, you can see free art activities involving local artists and musicians. Most of the participating business off some kind of refreshments, so it is a very social kind of event.

A map is provided of the participating venues on the website each month, so you can decided before you go which places you want to visit. There are local restaurants in a all of these areas, so many people enjoy dinner and then go walking. There are parking areas in each location which are indicated on the map.
