Come down to Salisbury's 3rd Friday this week

Posted

This week’s 3rd Friday in Downtown Salisbury is the perfect excuse to head out for a night Downtown.

This month's event is hosted indoors only – so that means no artists and crafters outside on the street -- but there is still tons to do and see inside before the event heads back outside in April. From gallery shows, live performances, shopping and more, there is always something for everyone to enjoy.

Art lovers, check out Salisbury University Art Galleries this 3rd Friday for a live art performance titled “Between Heaven and Earth.”

The immersive screen-dance performance by Jennnifer Leung Johnson is about the spaces we create and the breaks we rejoin through the process of healing. She interweaves dance, digital media, trauma research, healing frequencies, neuroaesthetics and interactive elements to create an interdisciplinary and multisensory experience.

The event will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. and is free and open to the public. 

Salisbury Art Space will be hosting the opening reception for its all-new exhibition “Common Objects” this 3rd Friday from 5 to 7 p.m., now on display through the end of March.

“Common Objects” are all around us, and are fun to explore – and art highlighting everyday objects was the challenge given to local Salisbury artists and Salisbury Art Space members this month.

The exhibition includes work in all mediums, and will be judged by local artist and professor John Mosher, with winners announced during the reception.

Salisbury Art Space is located on the lowest level of the Salisbury University Building, below Salisbury University Art Galleries.

Feeling Lucky? Check out Lilac Clothing Co. for “Lucky You” scratch-off coupons, available to everyone who visits -- everyone is a winner with prizes up to 50 percent off your purchase.

To celebrate the full moon, Blackwater Apothecary is hosting another night of shopping and fun with “B*itch Crafts” hosted by Vidalia Goods from 6 to 8 p.m.

Tickets are only $20 and include all the supplies needed to plant sunflower seeds in eggshells for a prosperous season -– plus talk of the moon, spring and more.

Not only is March Women’s Month, it’s also Harriet Tubman’s 200th birthday, so be sure to stop by The Brick Room for a special toast with their fabulous signature cocktails.

Revival, Downtown Salisbury’s newest entertainment venue, will be hosting the Divas of Hollywood Drag Show.

Join Magnolia Applebottom and her merry band of female impersonators for comedy, music and fun. Tickets are only $20 and are available online or at the door.

Concerned about social distancing, not to worry – 3rd Friday’s virtual event will continue to share event and community highlights for those who choose to stay at home.

Facemasks aren’t required in some shops, but could be required in others, so bring one just in case.

3rd Friday is a Downtown economic development initiative and a project of the Salisbury Arts & Entertainment District, in partnership with the city of Salisbury. For more information:   3rdFridaySby.com.
