After September’s First Friday took a rain check last week due to severe weather, the monthly community festival will return Friday, Sept. 8, for a “do over.”

The event will be at its normal local location at 1025 S. 1st St. from 5 to 11 p.m., and include over 60 artists and craftspeople, more than 20 food trucks, live painting and more, the First Friday Foundation said in a news release.

“Everything (except the weather) will remain the same!” First Friday said in a post on X.

After Sept. 1st was canceled due to weather, First Friday is BACK next week for a do-over event on Sept. 8th! ☀️
