SPECIAL UPCOMING EVENTS

First Fridays & LancasterARTS
Love Art? Lancaster City is the home to over 60 top-notch art-related destinations.
From fine art galleries & studios, art & cultural museums, and interactive art venues,
to performing art centers, antique art galleries, and even an art institution!

Downtown Lancaster is buzzing the 1st Friday of every month. Over 60 art galleries and shops
extend their hours and stay open to 9:00 PM - some even later! Year round, hundreds of people flock
Downtown to experience the city's upbeat, hip ambience, and experience the range of artistic offerings
concentrated in an area that is easily explored by foot. Receptions for featured artists are common
and Downtown restaurants are busy with crowds of hungry strollers bent on making the evening a tasty one.
It's an authentically urban experience that rivals events hosted by much larger cities.
An equal number of Lancaster's unique owner-operated boutiques open their doors for these First Friday events.
A free First Friday trolley runs from 6:30 - 9 p.m.,on a 20-minute loop through the Downtown core.

Walk from artist reception to gallery exhibit, shop for that perfect gift in our eclectic boutiques and shops, and complete the evening by filling up with great food and drinks at a nearby city restaurant. It is a unique experience for everyone to enjoy! More information on the LancasterARTS .
