Third Friday Twilight Walk

How long has it been since you’ve been to Rogers? We’re not talking about the new shopping destinations on I-540, but the beautiful historic downtown part of the town. If you haven’t been in awhile get out on Friday night for Third Friday Twilight Walk, an outdoor event, with food, drink, art exhibits, entertainment and fun for all ages. The theme for this month’s event is “Summer in the City” and many of the unique downtown businesses will be open. Downtown Rogers boasts art galleries, flea markets, vintage book stores, antique shops, restaurants, coffeehouses, an old-fashioned candy store and lots more small businesses. Activities take place between 5 and 9 p.m.
