2026 April Third Thursday

Spring explodes onto main Street with ‘Color Clash’ at the April Third Thursday, April 16, 2026, from 6:00-8:00 pm.  Expect bold hues, vibrant installations, and art that plays with contrast, texture, and imagination.  This Third Thursday invites artists and attendees alike to embrace color, energy, and the creative spark that come with warmer days and longer nights.  Enjoy hands-on art activities, pop-exhibits, live performances, and a special outdoor concert at the Avenue A Park gazebo from 7:30-9:00 pm, featuring 620 in the Mix and L.S.P.

In 2026 Third Thursday will expand programming geographically and creatively, growing Third Thursday from Avenue A through DCI Park, while continuing to prioritize experiences that align with the arts-and-culture mission. This expansion will allow us to support more artists, offer more variety, and create a downtown experience that feels dynamic from end to end.
