History of Fairfield 1st Fridays Art Walk

Fairfield 1st Fridays Art Walk was started by Stacey Hurlin, founder of the non-profit Art Life Society. It was Stacy's desire to create a more interactive event within Fairfield's art community and for the general public, especially visitors to our unique town.

The first art walk was in August 2002 and was named A Fun Fest Gallery Walk. The event was such a success that Hurlin and the Fairfield Arts Community were inspired to begin the monthly 1st Fridays Art Walk in October 2002. It has run every month going forward and has become larger, more diverse and creative and more populously attended with each passing year.
