Takes place on the first Friday of every month, starting at 5 p.m.
First Fridays is a one-of-a-kind cultural event highlighting local artists, performers, exhibits, and more. Many art galleries remain open for extended hours and waive admission fees to encourage visitors to stop in. New exhibits and special performances also tend to launch in conjunction with First Fridays.
First Fridays’ primary purpose is to highlight the organizations and spaces that are bringing local, regional, and even national art to the Lynchburg community. Downtown Lynchburg has an ever-expanding tradition of art, culture, dining, and shopping.
As the event grows, look for: increased community awareness and engagement, extended business hours, live music, restaurant specials, beer gardens, and even occasional trolley service!

Downtown Lynchburg Association exists to promote a strong, vibrant, and welcoming downtown.
