If you are interested in enhancing your knowledge and pride of where you live, then this is for you. Meet on Mesa Arts Center’s Shadow Walk, at the northeast corner of First Avenue and Center Street.

First Friday ArtWalk in Phoenix.
Friday from 6pm to 10pm
Tour more than 70 galleries, venues, and art-related spaces to see a variety of artwork and to enjoy the spirit and culture of the city. Shuttle rides to and from the ArtWalk are available at the Phoenix Art Museum. For ages 12 and up.
The Arizona Science Center hosts an adults-only night from 5:30 to 9pm on First Fridays. My husband and I went a few months ago--it was nice to explore the exhibits and get more of a chance to actually read...and stand for a while without kids around. My advice for parking is to take quarters to use the parking meters or find a free place to park and walk a ways to get there. Otherwise, you could end up paying $12 for parking to go to a free exhibit.

Take a stroll through the Gilbert Heritage District and enjoy fine art, music, and asilent auction. All proceeds from the silent
auction will benefit scholarships for special education students at Gilbert High School. In the Gilbert Heritage District, 225 N. Gilbert RdHave a good one,
