Downtown buildings and commercial galleries will open their doors from 5 to 8 p.m. to local artists, musicians, and performers, transforming the heart of the city into a vibrant hub of creativity.
The First Friday Artwalk event, launched in 2017 by local photographer Carl Kerridge and artist William H Miller, has provided a platform for local talent while promoting community spirit. These monthly events allow local artists to showcase their work, reflecting the richness and diversity of the cultural landscape within Myrtle Beach.
“Myrtle Beach has a vibrant arts culture, and we believe these monthly events are the perfect venue to highlight that culture. This month, we’ve added several live performances from painting, pottery, improv, language arts and open mic. Our intent is for this event to continue to grow month after month,” said Jason Greene, Chief Executive Officer of Myrtle Beach Downtown Alliance.
A large variety of artistic mediums will be on display, including painting, sculpture, photography and others. Several artists will be demonstrating their creative process, allowing attendees an opportunity to better understand the thought and effort behind the final product. Local businesses are ready to support the event, with downtown restaurants offering dining specials and drinks for all attendees.
