The county of Saratoga and its residents are proud of its tradition of supporting local artists. The “First Saturdays” event, which continues this tradition, takes place on the first Saturday of each month in downtown Saratoga Springs between Broadway, Spring Street, and Beekman Street. The event, which until recently was held on Thursday nights, is a part of the city of Saratoga Springs’ Art Council’s efforts to bring attention to a thriving art scene of Saratoga Springs and its neighbors.
