JOIN US ON AUGUST 6TH, 2021 FOR FIRST FRIDAY 5:00PM to 8:00PM

FIRST FRIDAYS IS A MONTHLY OPEN HOUSE FOR THE GREATER LYNCHBURG COMMUNITY.

During this event, we launch new exhibitions, both large and small, programming, and other events. Every evening features local musicians, artists, and small businesses. The aim is to make art and culture more easily accessible to the Lynchburg community while providing an entertaining evening.

We encourage all guests to wear masks while inside to help prevent the spread of Covid-19. If you don't have one, our staff will be happy to provide one.

This month, we'll be featuring the continuing exhibit from Sue Wrbican and a new Emerging Artist exhibit from Kris Collins... as well as open studios on the 1st and 2nd floors including Dave Keebler, Gay Tucker, Kim Clarke, and the Studio Around The Corner.

Live music will be in the main gallery by local band, Midnight Radio.

Our cash bar will be open - providing beer, wine and soft drinks!
