2026 June Third Thursday

‘Built Different’ celebrates craftsmanship, creativity, and things made with intention at the June Third Thursday, June 18, 2026, from 6:00-9:00 pm.  From a downtown car show to industrial arts and hands-on demonstrations, this Third Thursday highlights the makers, builders, and innovators who shape our community, providing the creativity isn't just seen, it's engineered.

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.
