Alwun House was bustling with activity during First Friday on Oct. 4. Inside the downtown arts hub, all ages were welcome to enjoy horror-themed art in an exhibit titled “Monsters Menagerie.”
Next door to the building, in the Art Park, things were a little spicier. The adults-only First Friday With a Kink event lured visitors in with shibari demonstrations, vendors, food and drink (including penis-, breast- and vagina-shaped waffles), and music by a DJ.
