The sun is shining and the temperature is perfect. It’s going to be a great weekend! And with all the food festivals and art exhibits going on – this is a weekend to get out there and enjoy all that Central Arkansas has to offer. Be sure to check out our calendar so you don’t miss a thing – and if we’ve missed your event – post it! We want to know all about what’s happening around here.
Walk. This is the last weekend of ArtWeek ’10, and tonight is the night to celebrate a successful ArtWeek with Argenta’s Third Friday ArtWalk. There will be lots of artists on the streets, and openings at the galleries – including Matt McLeod at Greg Thompson Fine Art and Dan Thornhill at Ketz Gallery. This is always a wonderful, family friendly time that you don’t want to miss. Friday, 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. Main Street in downtown North Little Rock.
Run. It’s time again for Dino Dash at the Museum of Discovery! This is the 11th year for this fun 5K run and family festival. If you’re not up for running 3.1 miles, take part in the 1K family fun run or just come for the Discovery Fest. This family friendly street festival in front of the Museum of Discovery includes a ton of entertainment, food, and fun that kids of all ages will enjoy. Saturday. 5K begins at 8:00 a.m.; 1K begins at 9:15 a.m. Third and Sherman Streets in downtown Little Rock. Visit www.amod.org for more information.
Relax. Sunday brings High Tea at the Empress of Little Rock’s Bed and Breakfast Indulge in scones and clotted cream and lemon curd, finger sandwiches and yummy desserts paired beautifully with their specialty tea. Then take a tour of the beautiful mansion. This could become your new Sunday afternoon tradition. Sunday, 3:00 – 5:00 p.m., $35 per person. Call (501) 374-7966 for reservations.
