Burien businesses are throwing the doors open with Burien’s First Fridays, an evening of uncommon experiences. The first First Friday will be June 7, launching with live electrifying-to-relaxing music, unique cocktails, wine-tasting, art, fashion shows, bone casting, leather-making, and much more.
With “Sip into Summer” as the theme for the inaugural Burien’s First Friday on June 7, celebrate the season with live music on the sidewalks and summery drinks, even specialty beverages for your pet. You can explore your inner rhythm by joining a drum circle of hand-made drums and instruments.
