Like a newly hatched chick, spring is a season full of possibilities — and events! In this week’s Hippo, we look at 127 fun ways to spend this season, which for our purpose runs until Memorial Day weekend (yeah, yeah, we know what the calendar says). FInd arts, theater, music, food events and so much more to brighten up this sometime sunny, sometimes rainy time of the year.
Also on the cover The NH Jewish Film Festival is a statewide, multi-week event that will feature screenings at theaters in Manchester, Concord, Merrimack and more as well as virtual screenings. Michael Witthaus gets the details on this festival that starts Sunday, March 23, on page 17. John Fladd looks at the United Way of Greater Nashua’s upcoming “Cheers to the Community Night of Wine and Comedy” event (page 21). And that comedy show on Saturday, March 22, is one of several comedy events this weekend. Michael Witthaus talks to comedian Zane Lamprey about his show on Saturday at the Henniker Brewing Company on page 26, where you will also find our rundown of other comedy shows this weekend and beyond. Is music more your style? Check out the Music This Week, which starts on page 27.
