First Friday's at the City of Raleigh Museum is a monthly after-hours event where the museum extends its evening hours to welcome visitors for art and history exhibits. Located right on Fayetteville Street, this stop lets you slip in and out of the galleries at your own pace while downtown is buzzing with activity. What to Know: Admission to the museum is free, making this a budget-friendly stop. The exhibits are best suited for school-aged children who can engage with the local history displays, though strollers are welcome inside the building. This event makes a great addition to your weekend plans because it offers a casual, educational pause before or after dinner downtown. You can explore the exhibits in under an hour, leaving plenty of time to grab ice cream down the street.
