Feeling the winter blahs yet? What better way to change your mood than to spend an evening listening to live music and viewing interesting art in downtown Sarnia during the February 7th First Friday Cultural Walkabout. While downtown, you can enjoy a tasty bite to eat at one of the many restaurants or coffee houses and do a bit of shopping as well. You are very likely to find the perfect Valentine Day gift for that someone special in your life.
First Friday Cultural Walkabout happens the first Friday of every month, all year round. Remember parking in the municipal lots is free after 6:00 p.m. nightly and free all day on weekends (no parking on city streets or municipal lots after 2:00 a.m. all winter).
