frontpage of the Hippo showing large text 63 for free, with small image of woman with thumbs up in the corner

This week we bring you 63 for free — that is, 63 things to do or go see or watch that are totally, mostly, somewhat free or at least free-ish.

Also on the cover You know what else is free? Voting in Hippo’s Best of 2024! Vote! Vote now! Vote at Hippopress.com. Tell your friends to vote! Tell your friends to tell their other friends to vote! It’s free, it’s fun, it will make you hungry for ice cream (maybe, I mean, it asks about ice cream and for some of us, just the words “ice cream” have us craving some Green Monster or Death by Chocolate). In summation, vote! See page 21 for details.

And watch the kids put a new spin on the familiar Marvel characters of Loki and Thor in the play Hammered this weekend from the Peacock Players (see page 14).
