Happy weekend! Winter made her comeback today so we’re hoping to embrace it this weekend - snowshoeing and cozy fires ahead! Here’s what else looks good:

Downtown Art: Not one, but two show openings downtown this weekend! LARAC’s Lapham Gallery kicks things off on Friday at 5pm with the opening of “Be Still”, featuring artists Anne Ackerson and Robin Brewer. Follow that up with a visit to Mountain Gallery at 6pm for the opening of “Plein Air Adirondack” featuring works from (you guessed it!) members of Plein Air Adirondack. Details here!

Comedy After Dark: Date night! Grab dinner downtown (Park & Elm, perhaps?!) and head over to The Park Theater for Comedy After Dark on Friday at 8pm. As seen on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and on Comedy Central, Carmen Lagala is “the kind of comic you’d have a wild late-night conversation with”. Sounds like fun to us! Grab tickets here.

Hockey Night: Have you been to a hockey game yet this season? Cheer on the home team this Friday and Saturday night - the puck drops at 7pm. Go Thunder! Tickets here.

Drink Slickfin, Support SHMD: It’s that time of year! The South High Marathon Dance is sneaking up on us and we love seeing fundraisers pop up around the community. Head over to Slickfin Brewing Company in Fort Edward on Saturday at 4:30pm - for every beer sold, they’ll be donating $1 to SHMD. Details here - cheers!
