• Viernes Culturales.
• Saturday: Zen Art Faire at Wallflower.
• Green Living Expo in Ft. Lauderdale (so don’t go).
• Elisabeth Condon: Seuss Dynasty, one of three excellent shows currently up at Dorsch, got reviewed by Michelle Weinberg (but I prefer the Grant Haffner stuff).

• Not sure who goes to see Bon Jovi these days (40-something women?), but this Saturday is your chance.
• Sunday: Crap, as always. If so inclined, the Euro Car Show.

   Yeah, I found that odd. I just emailed, hopefully I find time to hit before ANR at UEG.
