There’s a lot to do this First Friday; from the to the Opening Reception at ASU’s Vault Gallery, so you should probably go ahead and hit follow on these local artists before you head out for a night on the town.
After the jump, in no particular order, are some talented Phoenicians.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $15,500 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
Artist: Joe Ray
