The Heart of First Saturdays

There’s already so much to love about St. Marys, Kansas—its charm, its people, and its welcoming spirit. First Saturdays builds on that foundation, bringing even more energy, creativity, and connection to town one Saturday a month from May through October.

Each First Saturday, downtown St. Marys comes alive with live music, street performances, local artists, creative workshops, pop-up vendors, and special promotions from our incredible small businesses.

It’s a time to shop local, explore something new, and experience the arts woven into everyday life.

When our businesses grow, when the arts flourish, and when neighbors gather, our entire community thrives.

First Saturdays supports local commerce, invites visitors to discover the best of St. Marys, and brings new opportunities for residents to celebrate the creativity right here at home.

Through First Saturdays, St. Marys Arts & Sounds fulfills its mission: to make the arts accessible, to enrich community life, and to create meaningful experiences that connect us all.

Come stroll, shop, listen, create, and celebrate—because there’s always more to love in St. Marys.
