Did you hear that? That was the sound of Christmas exploding. There’s an absolute embarrassment of arts and culture options this week – especially if you’re a music fan. Better get right to it.
From millions of tiny lights to a preserved landmark, from music you know to music you ought to know, from provocative images to resourceful, talented women, there’s something here for your taste.
When faced with an event of the immense scope of BLINK, what’s a local arts group to do? By the number of events on tap for this week, the apparent answer is “wait a week.” There’s so much to do this weekend, for example, you will have to choose what to omit from our best-bets list.
There’s no doubt about it: It’s summer’s last week, and the days are getting shorter. Better get in a few last festivals while we can. Apparently it’s time for the music season to explode into full glory, too. Read on, and you’ll see what we mean.
