March 19, 2021 is the next 3rd Friday in Downtown Salisbury. This month's marks the last month to be hosted indoors only - so that means no vendors outside on the street until April - but there’s still tons to do and see. So, bundle up, grab some friends, and head out for a night on the town.
Salisbury Art Space will be open on 3rd Friday until 7 p.m., showcasing its exhibition “Good Riddance 2020!” – filled by area artists sharing what they’ve made over the infamous 2020 year. Exhibition winners were selected by judges, local artists and educators Sarah Perdue and Heather Riser, whose work is on display in the Foyer gallery.
Life in Watercolor: The Works of Katherine Wood Day is also on display at Salisbury Art Space, with all works for sale as a fundraiser to Salisbury Art Space and Salisbury A&E District. Katherine Wood Day, also known as K. Wood (1953 – 2011) took up watercolor after a career as a photography archivist, and rarely allowed her work to be shown during her lifetime. Her husband, Michael H. Day, hopes the works will bring joy to viewers, and help raise funds for the arts in Downtown Salisbury. Salisbury Art Space is located on the lower level of the Salisbury University Building, on the plaza, and will be open until 7 p.m.
If you’re headed out this 3rd Friday, be sure to support some of the amazing local shops and restaurants in Downtown Salisbury. Market Street Inn is celebrating its 20th Anniversary this month, with amazing specials and 20% off all carryout orders all week long.
Angello’s Scoops and Unique Gifts is having an End-of-Winter Sale with 50% off select items and 10% off your total purchase, plus they are debuting their new Frozen Lattes, Frozen Hot Chocolates, and an all-new Mint Cookie Sundae.
