Go Cubs Go
After 100+ years of waiting, Chicago's north-side finally got its wish. The 2016 World Series Champs may be taking some time off, but their symbol of victory isn't. The Cubs organization is taking the trophy on tour and it's coming to Davenport! From 12-1:30 p.m. on Monday, the trophy will be in the River Music Experience waiting for you! You better get there early!



River Music Experience
The blues is still going strong at RME and Anthony Gomes is coming to make sure that holds true. Grab tickets for the Friday night show. RME is also kicking off their annual appeal with the 8th Annual Winter Wine Experience! Sample amazing wines, snack on hors d'oeurvres, and listen to the stylings of the Steve Grismore Quartet - all while supporting music education. Natty Nation is making their way back to the QC next Thursday to celebrate the reggae king Bob Marley's birthday!

Daytrotter
An experimental duo from Rhode Island are making a pit stop at Daytrotter tomorrow night. The Body's goal is to not fit into any one genre, and they're doing just that. Check them out along with openers A Light Among Many and National Hero. History has a way of repeating itself and Black Marble is proof. We suggest watching a John Hughes film before going to the show Saturday night.

Bridal Expo
Jaycees of the Quad Cities is ready to help you plan the wedding of your dreams. From 9 a.m. - 4 p.m., explore the RiverCenter and start planning your day. The expo will feature vendors ranging from dance instructors to photographers and travel agents. Stop searching Pinterest boards and get to the RiverCenter Saturday!

Figge Art Museum
The Figge has been quite busy the past few weeks as they've opened three new exhibits! Support our local little ones from Muscatine this week as their artwork is featured in the "Young Artist at the Figge" exhibit. "Scrimmage" will help you explore out nation's football history, and see how propaganda was used to promote WWI efforts at the  "The Art of Persuasion" exhibit.
