Celebrate the art, music and culture that flourishes in Downtown Ashland!
Each month, on the fourth Friday, you'll find Downtown Ashland alive with sidewalk sales, music, exhibits, outdoor dining, and more. Our next event is July 24 from 5-7pm.
Ashland Fourth Fridays organizer Kitty Barnes of RED VEIN Escape explains, “Our goal is to support Ashland creatives while bringing attention to what Downtown Ashland already has to offer. As Ashland Fourth Fridays grows, we hope to provide a place for artists to regularly share their work and reach new supporters.”
Safety is our priority. Stroll the streets of Downtown Ashland while keeping your social distance. All exhibits are adequately spaced and sanitation measures are followed. You can confidently shop with local businesses and artisans safely during Ashland Fourth Fridays.
“There are incredible artisans in Downtown Ashland—jewelers, painters, musicians, bakers, chefs, and farmers. We have so much to celebrate!” said Maggie Longest, executive director of Downtown Ashland Association.
