In 1994, Artlink<\/a> began promoting the monthly First Fridays art walk, which has grown to become one of the largest monthly art walks in the United States. Over 30 years later, Artlink invites the local community to join in celebrating this monthly tradition by exploring a curated ‘Artinerary’ of arts and culture First Friday events, which has evolved into something that far surpasses the Roosevelt street closure.<\/p>\n Visit the arts and culture calendar<\/a> to find a current schedule of exhibitions and events for First and Third Fridays, or download the Artinerary app to plan your\u00a0route, find events, and map your First Friday adventure.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n First Fridays in the Garden @ Japanese Friendship Garden<\/p>\n 1125 N 3rd Ave Wind down your week with a tranquil stroll through the Downtown’s natural urban oasis, the Japanese Friendship Garden, located just steps away from Roosevelt Row.
