Oakland First Fridays hopes to resume in December

The organizers behind Oakland's "First Fridays" art and community festival are working to revive the event next month following an abrupt cancellation. The popular street fair along Telegraph Avenue was called off last week, with organizers citing ongoing financial difficulties as the reason behind the decision. Organizers emphasized that they are not giving up on holding a December event. The team is actively fundraising to secure the necessary money to stage a final celebration for the community before the year comes to a close.
