Nourish your appetite for local culture during First Friday at Nickel Plate Arts! These once-a-month events are packed with essential arts nutrients and stuff to make you happy inside and out.  Enjoy refreshments, live music, great art, and a cash bar featuring beer and wine from local producers.

Join us on Friday, October 4 from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. as we unveil “Graphic & Novel: A celebration of the graphic arts,” an exhibit that aims to celebrate illustrators, graphic designers, and printmakers. Enjoy live music from the Dan Nix Jazz Combo, refreshments, drinks from our cash bar, and even more great art next door in our Stephenson House gallery. We’ll also feature a local artist showcase by Christine Merchent and unveil her new collection, “Ghost in the Machine,” which is centered around artificial intelligence and “smart” machines. Enjoy an evening of art and local culture.
