Local School and College Partnership Applications
About the application
Application Process for First Friday Events
This is a two-step application process for local schools and colleges in the BCS community who wish to participate in First Friday events.
Step 1: Partnership Application
Before applying for any specific event, you must first submit a one-time partnership application. This application does not apply to a specific First Friday.
- Partnership applications must be submitted at least two months before the first event you wish to participate in.
- Example: To apply for January First Friday, submit your partnership application by November 10th at 12:00 PM (Noon).
- You will receive additional information on your partnership application by the 15th of the month.
- Applications submitted after the 10th of the month at 12:00 PM will NOT be reviewed until the 10th of the following month.
So long as you remain an active partner of First Friday (applying to at least 1 First Friday each year) you will only need to complete the partnership application 1 time. If 12 months lapse without a First Friday application from you, you will need to resubmit a partnership application.
Becoming a partner of First Friday does not guarantee your participation in the event. Partnership only means you will be able to apply to participate in each event.
Step 2: Monthly Event Applications
If your partnership application is approved, you will receive private application links for individual First Friday events by email.
You must submit a separate monthly event application for each First Friday event you wish to attend. These applications are approved on a first-come, first-served basis, so we recommend applying as soon as these open each month. Please note that spaces are limited and you may not be able to participate every month.
- Monthly First Friday applications open on the 1st of the month prior to the event you wish to participate in and close on the 10th of the month.
- Example: Applications for August First Friday will open on July 1st at 12:00 PM and close on July 10th at 12:00 PM (Noon).
Important Deadlines
- The final deadline to submit a partnership application for 2026 is October 10th at 12:00 PM.
- After this date, the earliest event you may be able to participate in is January 2027.
