First Friday

Participation for the 2020 Art Walk Season is closed. Thank you for your interest and participation.

The Downtown Warrensburg First Friday Art Walks have been a community effort since they began. There has always been a strong desire to bring more art and activities to the downtown area, especially in the evenings. The First Friday Art Walk gives opportunity to our local artists and musicians to showcase and share their talents with the community. It has also been a great experience for downtown businesses and shops to open their doors during hours they may not typically be open and engage with people that may not typically stop in. It has created a community of its own and has fostered relationships with artists, business owners, and like minded individuals.

Warrensburg Main Street absorbed the First Friday Art Walk in June 2019. We strive to streamline the process and help artists and business owners continue to facilitate this program themselves. Warrensburg Main Street will spread the word and share what our community is doing in downtown Warrensburg. You can fill out the form below to participate in our First Friday Art Walk – whether you’re an artist, musician or business.
