Come explore 2nd Friday Art Walk with a free shuttle.
Second Friday Art Walk is a monthly event that spotlights art, culture, and nightlife in Alameda. Galleries, shops, and bars stay open late every 2nd Friday and feature local art, live music, and 2nd Friday specials.
The City of Alameda, MV Transit and Sierra Nevada have partnered with SFAW to provide a free shuttle that loops from east to west Alameda with a stop in Jingletown.
The loop consists of 7 stops and takes about 40 minutes. The free shuttle takes riders to 2nd Friday hotspots around Alameda and Jingletown. Galleries, shops and bars stay open late every 2nd Friday and feature local art, spoken word, live music and/or 2nd Friday specials. Be on the lookout for specials from our sponsor Sierra Nevada.
