First Fridays in Winnipeg's Exchange District began as a project initiated by Sue Gordon and Karen Schulz in August 2010.  Since then, it has gone viral in this historic part of town.  Various art studios, retail outlets and restaurants are happily taking part in the monthly festivities.


First Fridays occurs on the first Friday of every month.  It aims to bring people into the Exchange, and allows local businesses to get their names out to the rest of Winnipeg and beyond.  These businesses open their doors and allow the public to participate in free art exhibitions, take advantage of discounted merchandise and to simply come together in a beautiful, striving part of downtown.
