Bradford Merchants Doing 'First Fridays'

Merchants within Downtown Bradford’s historic district will begin extending their business hours the first Friday of each month.

“First Fridays is already a popular and successful program within several Main Street communities in Pennsylvania,” said Main Street Manager, Anita Dolan, “and the downtown merchants in Bradford wanted to try it here.”

Merchants extending their hours to 7 p.m. include Paper to Pages, Grandma’s House Tea & Gifts, Main Street Antiques, Tin Ceiling Gift Shoppe, Bradford Furniture, Orris Jewelers, Roseart Gifts, and the Main Street Mercantile. The Fran Charles Shop is extending its’ hours to 9 p.m. every Friday, and Man’s World is open until 6 p.m. on Fridays.

“This is a good time for Bradford to begin First Fridays. We have some wonderful restaurants in our historic district and some new ones will be opening this summer,” added Dolan. “The Bradford Main Street Moviehouse will be installing it’s 3D movie theatre this month, so we are hoping people will support our downtown merchants by eating, shopping and going to a movie, all in our historic district.”

Summer dates for First Fridays will be June 4, July 2 and August 6.
