Salisbury, MD – January 18th, 2013 marks the next 3rd Friday in Downtown Salisbury, and when you consider all the art, fantastic shopping and restaurant specials that will be going on, you have yourself a great reason to head downtown for a fabulous night out. There will be art and multimedia events going on at both ends of West Main Street, so mark your calendars for a night that is sure to please.
On the Plaza, there will be several stops to make. The 3rd Friday artists will again fill The Powell Building, with Fine Art displays, as well as, plenty of handmade items and unique crafts. Then be sure to stop by The Art Institute and Gallery opening reception of the Figures & Portraits Show from 5 – 7pm. The show will feature two separate exhibits, each focusing on figurative art and portraiture. The Main Gallery will hold a wide range of works from artists from all over the Delmarva Peninsula, while the Foyer Gallery will highlight three local artists with varying approaches to the craft of portraiture; Ed Challenger, Jess Cross Davis and Leslie Belloso. Aqua Italian Restaurant and Sushi de Kanpai will each have amazing 3rd Friday specials, so stop in for a bite before you venture on!
On the West End of East Main Street, Seasons Best will be having a Countdown to the Superbowl Party with a chili cookoff! Their vendors will be cooking their secret recipes, and customers can vote for their favorites! After that, head upstairs to SWAC, as they celebrate the "Art of Film" with showing of movies such as Man with the Iron Mask, Jane Eyre, and a Star is Born as well as depicting the history of film through the silent shorts films of Chaplin, and classics like the Little Rascals, all time permitting. Then stop by Mojo’s for a drink to top it all off!
3F is an all-volunteer effort, a downtown economic development initiative and a project of the Salisbury Arts & Entertainment District Committee. There is no charge for local artists to set up, only registration is required. For more information: 3rdFridaySby@gmail.com or Visit www.3rdfridaysby.com

Does anyone know what is going on with Aqua? Went down for dinner Wednesday night...it was closed up tight...called the Deli yesterday...no answer?
For all who have not gone to this monthly event, you are really missing out. It's a great time. Don't miss it...
This event is so much better now that Urban Salisbury is gone.
Guess that's another thing this council got right that the Daily Times was wrong about and won't tell anyone. The DT and Ireton screamed bloody murder about it.
To the comment about aqua- unfortunate circumstances have split the partnership that operated aqua. Essentially the team that was running the bar part of the restaurant was unhappy with a few things and decides to leave. Fortunately the party that left was just a "bar management" company and has no legal impact or association with aqua. My last chat with Phil - owner of aqua and the plaza deli was that he would be reopening both places next week.
