First Friday On The Delaware Returns To Bristol

First Friday on the Delaware returns to Bristol Borough this week.

The annual Bristol Borough Business Association series of warm-weather events kicks off from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday along Mill Street, the intersection with Radcliffe Street and down to the waterfront.

The season’s inaugural First Friday celebration will feature arts, interactive crafts, vendors and shopkeepers selling various goods, live music from local groups, food vendors, and this year’s community art project.

May through September, the borough will celebrate with neighbors and those from out of town on the first Friday of every month. The tradition has grown since its launch a few years ago.

Attendees will be invited to help paint rocks over the course of the First Friday events that will be used to create a mandala, a colorful ritual symbol that represents the universe.

First Friday in May coincides with Visit Bucks County Restaurant Week, which features Bristol Borough eateries.

Mill Street will be blocked during the First Friday events.
