Hey Phoenixville,
The day is the upon us! First Friday is officially back, kicking off the season tomorrow night. The 100 and 200 blocks of Bridge Street closes to cars, the shops spill outside, and downtown turns into one big open air event.
Beyond that, we have got a sing along at the Colonial, a sound bath, a yard sale fundraiser, and an author dropping by Bistro on Bridge. You could go for a quiet morning at the Farmers Market or a wild day singing along to Maria Von Trapp!
Whether you're trying to finally get outside or just find something fun to do, there are plenty of options this week
Here's what's happening.
Featured Event
First Fridays in Phoenixville is back this Friday, May 1st, from 5:30 to 8:30pm, and I am excited! Parts of Bridge Street shuts down to traffic so you can wander freely between the shops, boutiques, and restaurants.
Live musicians will be tucked along the sidewalks, handmade craft vendors are setting up throughout town. Grab a bite, support local makers, and enjoy a relaxed evening out.
Phoenixville First Fridays (530 PM, Fri, Downtown Phoenixville, 100 and 200 blocks of Bridge St)
Business Spotlight
Tucked into Bridge Street in the heart of downtown, Il Granaio brings warm, homemade Italian cooking to Phoenixville. Warm, rustic, a little tucked away, with homemade pasta, seafood specials, and a wine and cocktail list worth lingering over. It's a go to for date nights, group dinners, and easy weeknight catch ups.
Starting May 3rd, a new Sunday brunch menu joins the lineup from 10 AM to 2 PM, bringing good coffee, beautiful plates, and Italian touches to your weekend.
