The River North Art District runs its First Fridays at RiNo ArtPark as a full festival rather than a quiet gallery walk, with live music, local makers, food and the district's signature murals as a backdrop. The August 7 edition runs late afternoon into the evening along the South Platte greenway.
Admission is free. The ArtPark sits at 35th and Arkins Court; parking in RiNo is tight on First Fridays, so the A Line and light rail to the 38th and Blake station are the easier routes in.
