SoMa After Dark

First Friday of every month

Over two dozen local eateries, art galleries and shops lining Main Street and adjacent streets will keep their lights on late so that everyone from children to retirees can enjoy the creative, eclectic and unique SoMa community. Businesses will offer special menus, discounts and entertainment. SoMa plans to work closely with Bernice Garden to bring in food trucks, vendors and live music. 

Second Friday Art Night

Second Friday of every month

Downtown Little Rock businesses host an after-hours art night every second Friday of the month. Regular hosts include Historic Arkansas Museum, Old State House Museum, Central Arkansas Library System’s Bookstore and Galleries at Library Square. Each month provides new themes and exhibits for people to explore, completely free of charge. As the area spans the Creative Corridor and River Market District, attendees are encouraged to visit several venues during the course of an evening - by car, by sponsored trolley, or on foot. Many locations provide refreshments, and downtown’s restaurants are equipped to satisfy any culture-seeker’s hunger.
