Overview
Bloom where art, culture, and connection meet. This is your season to be seen. Spring is blooming, and so are we.
Join us for First Thursdays, a free monthly creative kickback designed to bring together the community, professionals, and creatives for an evening where culture, connection, and creativity collide.
This month’s special edition, Art in Bloom, is a celebration of the vibrant energy that emerges when art and culture come together in one inspiring space.
Experience visual artistry, great music, and elevated mixology in a setting that feels both intimate and electric. Enjoy signature cocktails crafted by our featured bartender, a thoughtfully curated playlist filled with empowering, feel-good sounds, and conversations that linger long after the night ends. Surround yourself with expressive art, creative synergy, and a community of tastemakers and visionaries.
Whether you're discovering new artists, networking with like-minded professionals, or simply looking for a beautifully curated night out, Art in Bloom offers the perfect blend of culture, conversation, and celebration.
Hosted by V1019's Flyty and Jacinda at Christian Jacobs Salon Suites in Gastonia. This special edition is inspired by great music, signature sips, and art, curated by Dr. Monique Stubbs.
What to Expect at April’s First Thursdays: Art in Bloom Edition
An Art in Bloom–Inspired Atmosphere: Step into a space rooted in creativity and blooming with joy. Enjoy upbeat, empowering music that fills the room with radiant energy — the kind that gives you that glow-from-within feeling and keeps the vibes high all night long.
Curated Signature Cocktails: Sip on handcrafted signature cocktails prepared by our featured on-site bartender. Each pour is thoughtfully crafted to complement the evening’s elevated yet welcoming experience.
A Revolving Art Gallery Experience: Not your typical mixer or networking event. Explore a rotating art gallery showcasing highly talented local artists. Walk through the space, connect with the creatives, and experience artwork up close — with select pieces available for purchase.
First Thursdays features a rotating art residency of local artists. If you are an artist, we invite you to come and meet our curator, Dr. Monique Stubbs.
