If you're in Los Angeles during the first week of the month, be sure to check out First Fridays on Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Located in the heart of Venice just a few blocks from the beach, you'll find a hip, beach community where you can shop, check out great art, eat fantastic food, listen to dj's spin an eclectic mix of tunes and discover upcoming bands all in one night. Running from 6-10 pm on the first Friday of every month, you'll be welcomed by a hodge-podge of artists, hippies, yuppies, and locals. It makes for a great date night or girls night out! See you there!
