What Happened to First Night?
About this episode
The episode reflects on the nostalgia for First Night celebrations and their impact on community and local arts culture.
Every New Year’s Eve, my friend and I wish we had a First Night celebration to go to. We both went to many First Nights in our youth and wish such a thing were happening here in NYC. It was a great way to spend the last night of the year and take in a lot of local arts culture in one big burst. It was a lovely way to bring a community together.
