No First Friday

This is just to let you know that we will not be at First Friday in August. The merchants who are members of Downtown Gadsden, Inc who puts on this fabulous event every month have voted to no longer allow non-food vendors at the event. There will still be the wonderful food vendors you have found at past First Fridays, but I won't be able to be at this one.

But don't worry!!

We are making plans to be at the rest of the First Friday events. Another business will be trying out the idea of selling vendor space in their business and we have signed on to be a part of that. Unfortunately it will not start until September. On the positive side, though, the vendors will be indoors!!!

Please remember when you get your faces painted to always ask what kinds of paints they use. Acrylic paints and other craft paints are not meant to be used on skin and not all face paints are created equally. Starshine Faces artists only use professional grade facepaints that are designed to be safe for cosmetic use and also for the ease of removal. If you have any questions about facepainting, please let us know.

If you have comments or compliments on First Friday, please let Downtown Gadsden, Inc, know so that they can continue to make this event fun for everyone. We hate we won't be able to be there this month, but we hope to see you in September. Thank you so much for your support.
