Celebrate Third Friday In Downtown Salisbury

Shopping, Movies, Dining, Arts and Entertainment on Tap


Salisbury, MD
– The Salisbury Art and Entertainment District Committee will offer a cure for “cabin fever” on Friday, January 15th, when they join with downtown arts organizations and merchants to present the first Third Friday celebration for 2010. It will be an evening for local residents and visitors to eat, drink, shop, and enjoy art and entertainment. All Third Friday participants will display balloons at their front entrances.

The fun begins at 5:00 p.m. Special attractions for the January 15th event will include an opening reception at the Art Institute and Gallery featuring “BIG,” an exhibit of all oversized artworks. At 6:00 p.m. St. Peters Church will present “Reflections of Epiphany”, a special performance featuring bell choirs and the 5th Sunday Players. The Salisbury Wicomico Arts Council and Salisbury Film Society will present an evening of short films at SWAC headquarters above Seasons Best Antiques on Poplar Hill Avenue. Vintage short films will feature Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and Farmer Alfalfa. Seasons Best Antiques is featuring Broadway tunes by Mark Evans.

A variety of talented local artists will set up in gallery space in the City Center to display and sell their art, photography and jewelry. Tricia Kowalewski will exhibit a unique collection of fused glass. Morgan Nichols will be performing live in the City Center from 5-8 p.m., followed by a performance by Time Police. In addition, a number of downtown restaurants will feature live entertainment.

Third Friday is an all-volunteer community effort designed to showcase the talent of local visual and performing artists and attract people to restaurants and shops to see what Downtown Salisbury has to offer. The Third Friday initiative was launched last July with positive public response. Similar celebrations are held monthly in Arts & Entertainment Districts in Berlin, Cambridge, and Snow Hill.
