Take a ride with me to Fairfield!

1st Fridays Art Walk kicks off the new year with an awesome display of fire and ice, winter songs at the Art Walk benefit concert, and the award winning galleries, January 2nd.

The Art Walk will welcome the fire acrobatics of Pyrotechniq and Iowa’s acclaimed ice sculptor Bill Gordish’s creation of ice masterpieces at the Arts and Convention Center. The winter celebration will feature Fairfield musicians at the Art Walk Benefit Concert at the Sondheim Center and a variety of delicious winter foods inside the Center.

Stroll through the historic Fairfield Square and visit the award winning art galleries and venues and make your new year’s resolution at the Art Walk wishing tree.
