Residents, visitors and holiday shoppers made a night of it at the Mongoose Junction Shopping Center on St. John on Black Friday. Gift shops, boutiques, bars and restaurants kept the lights on well into the night despite sporadic power outages.
Steel pan players in singles and in groups kept spirits bright throughout the evening. Love City Pan Dragon Dax Chouiniere gave a solo performance near the entrance of North Shore Deli.

Crowds gathered in the courtyard outside of Bajo el Sol Gallery and Art Bar for Bamboula Boutique’s Fashion Show. Angi Glen displayed her sense of style.

On the mezzanine, friends greeted each other at the Sun Dog Cafe.

Shoppers wasted no time pursuing the selection at Lulee Boutique.

While other shops offered unique decorations for the home and the holiday tree.

In between, there was time to sit and relax with libations set to flow through midnight.
