First Friday, one floor down.

On the first Friday of every month, downtown Flagstaff stays open late and puts art on the walls. This December, we're one of the stops. Come down the stairs, see what's hanging, and pick up a present or two straight from the artists.

01On the walls

Two Flagstaff painters, hanging work for the night.

Brigitte De Marco and Emma Gardner are hanging paintings in the rooms for First Friday. They're the two artists we wanted down here first.

See something you like? Ask about it. The plan for these walls is simple: art goes up, art sells, and something new takes its place.

02Holiday shopping

Get your Christmas shopping done down here.

First Friday lands three weeks before Christmas, which makes this a good night to take care of your holiday list. Artists will have originals, prints and stickers for sale, so there's something for the person who has everything and something for a stocking too.

You get a present nobody else is going to wrap this year, and a Flagstaff artist gets paid. Hard to do better than that at the mall.

03Calling artists

Make art? Come sell it.

We're setting aside space for artists to set up and sell their smaller work. Prints, stickers, small originals, the kind of thing that fits on a table and under a tree.

Want to be part of it? Tell us what you make and we'll get back to you.

If a text is easier.
A website or an Instagram handle.
And what you'd bring to sell. A couple of lines is plenty.

Sending this doesn't lock anything in. It just starts the conversation.

04Finding the door

We're easy to walk past.

The Wild Below is in the basement of the 1917 Masonic Temple at 120 N San Francisco St. The door is below street level, so you won't spot us from across the street. Head for the address, then head down.

Doing the whole ArtWalk? We're around the corner from Heritage Square, just up San Francisco Street.

05New to the ArtWalk

It's a wander-at-your-own-pace kind of night.

First Friday ArtWalk runs from 5 to 9 PM all over downtown and the Southside. Galleries, shops and studios keep their doors open and you walk between them. No ticket, and no route you have to follow. Make us one of your stops.

06Your own night

Like the room? You can book it.

The Wild Below is open for shows, parties and get-togethers of under 50 people. If First Friday gives you an idea, tell us about it.

07Stay in the loop
