FIRST FRIDAY FUN IN DOWNTOWN RALEIGH!

Description

First Friday is one of Raleigh's most popular evening escapes. Enjoy a free self-guided tour of local art galleries, art studios, museums, retail, restaurants and alternative art venues. Additionally, check out the downtown R-Line Free Bus Circulator! The route enables a twenty minute loop that includes stops in the Moore Square District, Warehouse District, Fayetteville Street District, and Glenwood South District. Look for the First Friday Flags to easily locate participating venues. A detailed map/guide will be available at each location. Pick up your very own copy for FREE for easy event navigation. Visit the galleries, listen to live music and delight in a divine culinary experience and take advantage of the First Friday Specials offered by participating restaurants/bars. Don't forget that the Raleigh First Friday bicycle crew has their popular monthly downtown gallery rides. All you have to do to participate is show up at the NC State Bell Tower at 7pm (by bike of course) and be ready to have a great ride from art gallery to art gallery in downtown Raleigh! -------------------- ***Please see individual member pages for more detailed First Friday info*** Alter EGO Hair and Nail Salon 119 E.
