First Fridays Long Beach

First Fridays Long Beach

First Fridays Long Beach began at Chroma Glass Designs in November 2006. Chroma Glass Designs owner Krista Leaders, friends Keith Lewis and Peter Dopulos had a simple idea to give local artists a place to show, bring attention to business, and give the community of Bixby Knolls something to do for the evening. From the first show in November 2006 to now, one year later, First Fridays has grown beyond expectations. Even though First Fridays includes many businesses in Bixby Knolls showcasing local artists, the original concept remains.

The mission of First Fridays is to promote and support local artists and musicians by providing them with an outlet to showcase their work. Every first Friday night of the month, participating Bixby Knolls businesses will unite to promote local artists and musicians through extended operating hours. In doing so we hope to encourage a dialogue between businesses, artists and the community.

We look forward to seeing you at First Fridays Long Beach to help support local artists, businesses, and community.
