First Night® in Grand Center

Thank you for another fantastic First Night in Grand Center!

We hope you had an amazing evening at First Night® in Grand Center with us this year! All of Grand Center celebrated the New Year with acrobats, jugglers, jokers and more at First Night® in Grand Center 2013 – A Traveling Circus. Stay updated on our website, Facebook and Tumblr for more photos and videos from First Night® 2013!

Founded in 1976 in Boston (1991 in St. Louis), First Night® is a community celebration of the coming of the New Year expressed through the arts. First Night’s® mission is to broaden and deepen the public’s appreciation of the arts through an innovative, diverse and high quality program which offers the community a shared cultural experience that is accessible and affordable to all. In order to maximize the participation of people of all ages, First Night® is a non-alcoholic event.
