Weekend Fun: Children’s Music, Greenway Cleanup, Silk Screening & More

By |

Sulinha’s Trio performs educational children’s music at the Library.

This is going to be a lovely weekend to enjoy some poetry at Mount Auburn Cemetery or to catch a yard sale. If you have little ones at home, take them over to the library for some music time with a Brazilian influence. The songs are in English, but the instrumentation is definitely Brazilian. As a crafty person myself, I’m drawn to the home-held stamp camp or the silk screening at the Fort Gallery exhibit. And the peace focused art there is unique. Finally, don’t forget the free movie for kids at the Majestic 7. It’s ” this weekend, always at 11 a.m.
