Hello!

Putt-A-Round with Big Brothers Big Sisters today and tomorrow at the RiverCenter and take a shot at 20 fun themed holes! On Saturday, warm yourself up with tropical thoughts when the Quad City Parrotheads present Havana Day Dreamin'. This tropical party with a purpose includes live music, a 50/50 drawing, and auctions at the RiverCenter. Head out to RME from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m. for the pre-party! Start February off by celebrating Black History Month at the Figge! Enjoy FREE ADMISSION all day this Saturday, watch eagles along the Mississippi, or learn about the presence of African symbols in North American quilts. You won't want to miss this day full of exciting, free activities. It's also your last chance to see Quilts: Masterworks from the American Folk Art Museum Exhibition as it closes Sunday.
What better way to celebrate the German American Heritage Center's Vintage Vows & Veils Exhibit than with a mock wedding ceremony in German. On Sunday, learn about traditional German ceremonies, enjoy wedding cake, and see this fascinating new exhibit. A pastor will even be available to bless family Bibles.
Head to River Music Experience Friday for A D*mn Good Time Variety Show Vol. 3! Prepare yourselves for an event full of local musicians, dancers, and jokesters. Love good singer/songwriters? Don't miss two of Chicago's finest when Dick Prall and Dave Tamkin take the RME stage tonight. If you prefer to have your mind blown by dueling virtuoso acoustic guitars, check out the Andreas Kapsalis & Goran Ivanovic Guitar Duo on Friday,too.
Ready for some football? Head out to Rock Around the Clock Sunday where you can enjoy tailgating favorites. Our neighbors to the west at the Putnam Museum are showing the big game on their giant screen, too! Musicians Adam Beck and the Josh Duffee Orchestra will be playing at Rhythm City this weekend, as well.
If you're looking to mix things up for lunch, check out the NEW menu at the Radisson's Brady Street Chophouse! Choose from a variety of salads, burgers, wraps, and more including the new Cajun Dusted Shrimp Caesar Salad, Bistro Club Wrap, Smoked Turkey Bacon Melt, and soup and 1/2 sandwich deal.
Icestravaganza had to be postponed due to terrible weather last Sunday, but please know we're working hard to set up a new date in February! Stay tuned for more details and download our Android App or our iPhone App to have updates right in your pocket.
See you downtown!
