3RD FRIDAY FOR JUNE FEATURES WHEELY FUN
Salisbury, Md. - June's third Friday is sure to be "Wheely Fun," with a theme celebrating wheels of all kinds - bicycles, skateboards, roller skates, and cars. This month's third Friday is set for Friday, June 21, from 5 to 8 p.m.
Third Friday is a free arts event in Downtown Salisbury on the third Friday of each month. This year, 3rd Friday has a new layout, including the Downtown Plaza (West Main Street from West Market Street to North Division Street), Division Street next to the parking garage, and Unity Square.
