The Kennett Square First Friday Art Stroll has a way of sneaking up on us, the next one takes place on Friday, March 2nd! The popular monthly event has proven to be a festive night for the borough, with couples and families dining, shopping and checking out the art and music. Several galleries are open late and offer wine and appetizers as they showcase new artists and live music. If you haven’t made the trip to Kennett, a First Friday Art Stroll provides the perfect opportunity to take in everything the borough has to offer. You won’t be disappointed. Here is a partial list of the March activities:
Longwood Art Gallery will be showing Peter Sculthorpe’s giclee prints throughout March, including a new print.
A ribbon cutting will take place for a new boutique, called Mystique, that features both men’s and women’s fashions.
