Here's what's going on in town this weekend

Posted

Good day and happy weekend.

In preparation for their appearance at the Kennedy Center’s Region Three American College Theater Festival, the cast and crew of LCC’s “Never Swim Alone” present an open dress rehearsal Sunday. The avant-garde play centers around two identically dressed businessmen who are locked in a battle of verbal one-upmanship, which is refereed by a female lifeguard. The three are linked by a dark episode in their past. To learn more, see City Pulse's article on the play. Sunday, 4 p.m. FREE. Dart Auditorium, 500 N. Capitol Ave., Lansing. (517) 483-1488, lcc.edu/showinfo.

Celebrating true love takes a lot of planning these days. Thankfully, the Lansing Bridal Association is here to help with its winter bridal show, mid-Michigan’s only two-day bridal event. There will be a wide variety of vendors on site, including DJs, photographers, travel agents, bakeries and more. Attendees can pre-register online to receive discounted tickets and automatic entry into the show’s door prize drawing. Noon-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. $7/$6 advance. The University Club, 3435 Forest Road, Lansing. (517) 709-2026, lansingbridalshow.com.

Want to avoid spending yet another Saturday plopped in front of the television? The Broad Art Museum’s monthly family day, held on the first Saturday of each month, is giving you an excuse to get out of the house. Explore a few “selfies” from the museum’s permanent collection, or make some art that is “all about you” as a part of the exploration of the self. There will also be a special 1 p.m. museum tour specifically designed for families. Saturday, 11 a.m.-3 p.m. FREE. Education Wing, Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, 547 E. Circle Drive, East Lansing.
