Get in on First Fridays fun while you can as June 1 will be your last chance to attend everyone’s favorite lecture/party/concert inside the Natural History Museum in 2012.

Last month was a pretty good time, as evidenced by the photos.   DJ sets from Anthony Valadez and Valida filled the African Mammal Hall with sweet, sweet tunes.   Meanwhile, AA Bondy and Father John Misty played to a packed crowd.

And it should come as a surprise to no one that First Fridays will be going out with a bang, with  DJ sets from Anthony Valadez and Garth Trinidad and live performances from Superhumanoids and Cut Chemist.  Get there early to catch the lecture on creativity from the brilliant Jonah Lehrer.

Check out these photos from May’s First Fridays by Photographer Jeremiah Garcia. After the photos you’ll find details for tomorrow’s festivities.  Hope to see you all there!
