Bratt First Friday & Gallery Walk- SEPTEMBER!
Time for ART & COMMUNITY, of course it’s Gallery Walk (and Bratt First Fridays). That’s right, from here on out we’ll refer to the 16 walkable gallery stroll as Gallery Walk (May-Dec), and the Block Party style festivities with street closure + food + music + libations as Brattleboro First Fridays (May-October). We hope this messaging will make our communication more clear about what’s happening when.
