The Freight House Farmer's Market returns to it's normal spot this Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Freight House Building and Lot. Round up the family, even the dogs, and come on down for fresh, local goods. Make your way to the Quad Cities Food Hub to educate yourself on edible landscaping or learn how to make probiotics on only $5 a month!
If you're looking for ways to enhance your artistic abilities, check out classes offered by Atom Studio + Gallery over in Bucktown Center for the Arts. Work on creating beautiful landscapes during their Landscape 2 class tonight, or introduce yourself to the art of painting your own wine glass on Saturday during their Painted Wine Glasses class.
Mother Nature has been rather kind to us this week, so take advantage of this beautiful weather and head out to Modern Woodmen Park to cheer on the River Bandits. Tonight features Half-Price Night along with a hat giveaway to the first 3,000 fans. Saturday's game celebrates Christmas in July, so pull out that ugly sweater or Santa hat for $1 off your ticket.
Wind down your busy week at River Music Experience tomorrow during this week's Friday Live at 5 featuring Who Cares? sponsored by Swiss Valley Farms. Afterward, Six to the Chest, The Continuance, and Dynoride take over RME Hall for a night of energetic power rock and metal jams. On Saturday, support the Rock Campers at their Rock Camp USA Concert. Be sure to hop over early for some good seats!
The 43rd Annual Street Fest is right around the corner! Come on down to Second Street next Friday and Saturday for a variety of vendors, live music, firefighter water fights, and fun! Keep in mind the Quad-City Times Bix 7 Sports and Fitness Expo is next Thursday at the RiverCenter, too.
