SoWa First Fridays
First Fridays are an integral part of the SOWA Artists Guild mission. First Fridays take place the first Friday of each month from 5:00 to 9:00 pm.
By opening their working space to the public, the Guild hopes to give people an avenue for viewing quality contemporary art that complements yet goes beyond the gallery experience. The studios are also all open during the Spring Art Walk and the Fall South End Open Studios, and many are open during SoWa Sundays. You can also catch the artists at other times during the week and weekends. Please check individual studio listings for availability.
