Need something to do this weekend? We’ve got you covered!
Friday 11/3
FIRST FRIDAY! The first Friday of EVERY month the art galleries in Old City have free open houses, and many artists set up shop in the street to sell their art and other handmade items. First Friday has become so popular that it even extends into other neighborhoods like Fishtown. If you’re in the mood for a stroll among the streets to soak up some art and mingle with likeminded people, First Friday is for you! This Friday is the FF for November! Come out and support local art.
