Wake up, Upper Valley: White River First Fridays are back on May 7!
While we've been getting vaccinated and preparing to safely congregate as the weather warms, a group of Upper Valley artists has been collaborating on a series of FREE, COVID-safe summer arts events that are going to rock your socks off!
Light River Junction First Fridays start Friday, May 7 (RAIN DATE TBA, if necessary) with "Toons & Tones." The other LRJFF events are June 4, July 2, and Aug 6.
EVENT DETAILS:
"Toons and Tones"
May 7, 5 - 10 pm (RAIN DATE TBA)
Free outdoor arts throughout downtown White River, with an emphasis on young local artists, including a filmmaking workshop, live music by local musicians, selected footage from the creative minds of CATV, projected short films from our great local filmmakers, and even an audio-visual beat set to get us moving after a long pandemic year of isolation.
DO: Mask up, maintain social distance per current state guidance, but otherwise ... enjoy!
