2nd Friday Art Night (2FAN) and the Art Program at CALS:
Join us each month for 2nd Friday Art Night (2FAN), a downtown Little Rock after-hours art event that happens on the second Friday of each month from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Events are hosted at several locations in downtown Little Rock by various organizations.
In January 2024, CALS began hosting its monthly 2FAN event at the CALS Rock It! Lab at 120 River Market Ave. Each month, attendees will be greeted with a local artist selling their work and/or providing art demonstrations, a DJ or performer playing music, and light refreshments and libations.
Stop by each second Friday to chat with local artists, shop locally from Arkansas makers, take in some music, and sip wine with friends.
The event is free to attend and parking is free with validation in the library lot/deck (as space is available).
For more information about all 2FAN activities, visit the 2nd Friday Art Night Facebook page.
