First Friday Declares “Joy” for First 2022 Event

Fizzywood, Local Mixed-Media Artist Is Featured

First Friday Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, announces that First Friday’s Jan. 7 event is declaring “Joy” of being together and sharing creativity at the start of the new year. The art walk area on Boulder Avenue and First Street will feature an estimated sixty First Friday artists and craftspeople. The food garden and bar area remain in the Art Square parking lot, along with the stage. Local musicians will play near the food court stage and the Indie Genius Stage in the Art Walk.

Key elements for this month include:

  • Hours of Operation – 5:00 p.m. to 11 p.m.
  • First Friday Footprint – The Art Walk is on Boulder Ave. in front of the Arts Factory and on 1st Street. The food garden and bar are located in the Art Square parking lot.
  • COVID-19 Requests – Guests are asked to be mindful of others. There are no mask requirements or social distancing requirements currently. First Friday will continue with its program of sanitation and asks guests to continue washing/sanitizing their hands.
  • First Friday’s Featured Artist – Elizabeth Woods – Fizzywood – is a local Las Vegas mixed-media artist who specializes in figurative art. She uses surrealist elements in her art to depict her subjects’ feelings and likes to draw focus to negative emotions like loss, grief, and insecurity. She states, “Without joy you couldn’t experience loss and without loss you couldn’t appreciate joy.” in response to a question about this First Friday’s theme of “Joy.”
  • Entertainment – Check out the First Friday website for list of entertainment.

  • Other arts district art galleries, restaurants, bars and other retail businesses will also be open for First Friday.
