Important Note About Third FridayArtscrawl Events

January 13, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Greetings, artists, friends of the factory, n’ other cool folks!

Just a quick note to let everyone know we’ve canceled our Third Friday Artscrawl event. We’re in the process of making the Factory show lineup an even more exciting experience, and we’ve decided to put the Third Friday events on hold for now.

This does NOT affect special shows that might happen to occur on Third Friday (specially scheduled events). It just affects the regular Artscrawl Third Friday events. :-)

Note: Our First Friday event schedule has not changed! Just the Third Friday event schedule has.
