This Week in Downtown Davenport: 3/6 - 3/12

By QC Chamber

Focusing entirely on health and lifestyle choices, the Women's Health and Lifestyle Fair returns to the RiverCenter Saturday for it's 24th year. For $1 and one can of food, you can enjoy fitness tips, home decorating advice, cooking facts, and more. Later that evening, "stunningly brilliant" pianist, Joel Fan, performs at the Adler with the Quad City Symphony Orchestra Masterworks V. A combination of rhythmic energy and direct expression help this performance characterize the diversity within American music.

Local bands and artists are taking over the second floor of the River Music Experience on Saturday to support "Music in Education Month." Hosted by Local Scene Magazine, this fundraiser for music education will benefit the Rock Island Schools Foundation music education program. On Tuesday, munch on free popcorn while watching The Big Lebowski for this week's Redstone Reels! Later in the week, get your Bluegrass fix when Henhouse Prowlers perform with Franki Joe & Kinfolk.
Ladies, inexpensively expand your wardrobe at the Shop for Success Spring Sale hosted by Dress for Success Quad Cities. From suits and slacks to handbags and jewelry, find your next favorite work outfit here! Please note this is a cash sale only. All proceeds benefit Dress for Success Quad Cities and their mission to empower women on their journey toward economic self-sufficiency.
Help raise awareness and funds for Wounded Warriors in the QC area on Thursday during the New Kingdom Trailriders' Big Impact for Everyday Heroes event. Featuring a keynote speaker, live entertainment, dinner, live auctions, and more, this event is a fun way to show support of everyday heroes in the Quad Cities.
 Feeling lucky yet? St. Patrick's festivities begin next week! Get your green attire ready and prepare for a day of celebration on Saturday, March 14 with the St. Patrick's Day Grand Parade, CASI's 33rd Annual St. Patrick's Day Race, and a Classic Day o' Fun at Me & Billy.  Stay tuned for more details next week.
