1st Friday is a treasure trove of fun. The one-night extravaganza is a sidewalk showcase for numerous gallery openings, one-night shows, local shops, restaurants and live entertainment. Locals know this Friday night commerce stays open late for artistic fun in Albany's downtown center square.
Take an inspired drive-by! St. Joseph’s Church is a testament to the divine inspiration of architect Patrick Keely. The church held its last service in 1993 and today is under restoration by the Historic Albany Foundation to save a building that deserves to continue to grace the capital city skyline.
