First Fridays—when galleries and businesses stay open late on the first Friday of the month—are a Richmond tradition in the Broad Street Arts District. On First Fridays in September through December, the ICA welcomes all to linger from 5 to 9 p.m. for evening art viewing, food trucks, student DJs, and other exciting programming.

Happening this First Friday: Join us for a 6 p.m. screening of Griffin in Summer (Nicholas Colia, 2024, 1 hr., 30 min.), Fries in Disguise food truck, and music from WVCW DJ Lily Gordon. On First Fridays in September and October, a trolley sponsored by The Valentine Museum will include the ICA as one of its stops.
