The event continues to grow and evolve.  As many as 30,000 people move into this section of town to enjoy the activities.  You can find street art, to fine art.  Several long time food & drink establishments, to retro shops and antique shops.  What fun it is to browse through all the shops.   

We have attended at various times of year.  There has been a mini "Burning Man" performance, to vintage and antique cars lined up for viewing.  Street vendors selling popcorn, to fine wine.

We understand this First Friday (August 2013) there will be 2 giant side by side aquariums erected by the team from the TV show "Tanked"

So if you are interested in buying a deep fried twinkie, or a unique piece of art, be sure to come downtown and meander through the event.  Bring your camera.  People watching is free....and there will be no shortage of that!  We hope you catch a glimpse of the elusive UFO the hoovers around at times.  Have your camera ready, because it may be there, then gone!
