Our BREAD & BUTTER, First Friday is our longest-run program,
happening on the first Friday of every month, year-round.
A printed and digital map provides visitors a guide to walkable events and exhibitions located in neighborhood galleries and businesses.
BFF also sponsors programming in the neighborhood including youth engagement, hands-on education, digital projections, on-street Artist Markets, street closures, and special annual events like PRIDE (June) and the New American Arts Festival (August) which showcases local refugee and immigrant arts and cultures.
