Best way to stay warm around Capitol Hill this weekend? Stay busy with the jammed full CHS Calendar.
There is plenty to do right off the start. Thursday brings a celebration of Belmont Ave-headquartered Freakout Festival at four venues clustered at the rockin’ intersection of 14th and Pike — Chop Suey, Bar Sue, Pony, and Lovecitylove. 11th and Pike venues are also banding together Thursday night for Kock’s Ball, a fundraiser to help a colleague pay for expensive medical care following a motorcycle crash. Ghost Gallery marks a remarkable decade of its annual Holiday Mini Art Exhibit with hundreds of small works all $250 and under starting Thursday night and on display — and for sale — through the holidays.
We suppose you might like something to do beyond Thursday. Saturday, help Velocity Dance say goodbye to the V2 art space with a “performance party” to mark the beginning of the end for the old Value Village building.
Thursday also brings a doubleheader of holiday fun with the return of Holiday in the Park at Volunteer Park and a special December Art Walk edition of the Pike People Street that won’t be stopped by snow.
And like we told you earlier in the week as we previewed the busy holiday happenings ahead, this weekend, you’ll also see artists from Urban Art Works team up with Girl Scouts to create holiday murals at various Broadway businesses.
