Established 2001 | Always free!
Today’s Weekender comes at a pivotal moment. Inspired by the recent mobilization in Minneapolis, many around the country are calling for a general strike tomorrow. You’ll notice that we’ve included Friday shows in our list of offerings, as we believe that shopping local and recharging via arts & culture experiences is another way to show up in solidarity.
If you’re going out, consider paying with cash and supporting locally owned establishments. Stay safe!
