First Fridays unite the community with art

On the first Friday of every month, Allentown’s art galleries, shops and restaurants see a spike in business. First Fridays promote the neighborhood’s eclectic venues with gallery tours and featured performances. From 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. people are encouraged to wonder through the different galleries and connect with the community through Buffalo’s art scene. By Dan Almasi and Andrew Kuczkowski
