First Fridays in Five Points AND Avondale

Get the party started early! Two parties on Friday night will kick off a very busy weekend.

Celebrate First Friday's @ Avondale Artworks located at 3568 St. Johns Avenue then head on over to 5 Points for the monthy block party with live music, art, dining, shopping and entertainment. Or start in 5 Points! Either way, there is sure to be a lot going on!

Both events start at 6pm and last until 9.

First Fridays in 5 Points

If you haven't stopped by the new Flat File Gallery in 5 Points, this Friday would be a great time to drop in. This Friday during First Friday, the gallery will open the exhibition Low Yards, new works by Jacksonville artist Anna McClellan. For this series she warmly renders natural objects found along her footpath, objects low to the ground and often overlooked in the broad vista of traditional landscape imagery. Read more>>

The 5 Points Theatre has a good locally made lineup for First Friday this month - they'll be showing a loop of locally made music videos from 6 to 9 (free!), and at 9 will be the first showing of Chiaroscuro, Baby featuring a Q&A with director Anthony Kilburn. Chiaroscuro, Baby will be shown all week - check their website for showtimes.

As usual our monthy block party offers live music, art, dining, shopping and entertainment in every direction. First Friday in 5 Points, this and every First Friday. See what makes us different. If you want your information included here, send me an e-mail.
