May's Third Friday in Wyandotte!

Thank you to all the volunteers who helped make our first Third Friday a success! A special thank you to Natalie Rankine and the PTO from McKinley School for volunteering! Participants enjoyed decorating the salvaged bricks from the old Wyandotte Theater, which will be auctioned off during June's Third Friday. Thank you to Jaye Thomas and the bands Apartment Four and Rogue Satellite for performing!
