According to organizers, Bristol Borough is set to come alive again, with the beginning of First Friday.
The free event, which is sponsored by the Bristol Borough Business Association (BBBA), will run from 5 to 8 p.m. the first Friday of every month from June through September in the Historic Bristol Shopping District at Mill & Radcliffe Streets.

Those who attend can also enjoy performances by the Stepping Stone Dance Studio, the Bristol High School Drama Club, and live music from Little Miss Love Jones & The Archangels, and Seth Aaron Jones.
Mill Street’s newly opened Bristol Borough Center for the Arts will also give those who attend a tour of the new facility. An art walk and community mosaic project will be at hand for the artsy-types.

Children can enjoy 1 hour classes for $15 through Penelope Fox Art, and adults will have access to shopping opportunities and even a beer garden at the Historic King George II Inn.
The BBBA, which has attempted to create an event like First Friday in the past, has decided to market the event and even create a committee to help serve it’s cause. Organizers hope the event will help to restore the renaissance of the borough and create an interactive time between visitors, it’s businesses, and it’s residents.
