Garden City’s Surel L. Mitchell Live-Work-Create District is bustling with artists, creatives, and artisanal businesses. Come to our neighborhood on the river as much as you can, but especially during our First Friday Art & Studio Stroll. You’ll find many locations open during the event including artist studios, restaurants, and businesses featuring art events – including exhibitions, readings, and performances.
