Both baklava and spanakopita (the spinach and feta pie pictured here and on the cover) make excellent breakfast foods — OK, maybe that’s not one of our Glendi “facts” (it’s true, though). To celebrate this year’s 44th Glendi, we present 44 facts about this annual festival of Greek food and culture and the community that puts it all together at St. George Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Manchester.

Also on the cover It’s a celebration weekend! “Fandoms unite” is the headline of our story on the Granite State Comic Con — a celebration of not just comic books but all manner of pop culture (page 14).

Find more theater, arts, music, festivals (such as the Children’s Museum of NH’s Toddlerfest, pictured at right), book events and more in this year’s fall guide.

We recognize that summer, in the calendar sense, might not be over but Labor Day does feel like the conclusion of the summer vibe. So in this week’s paper we look at a few of the events that made this mild, sometimes sunny, frequently rainy, summer unique. On the cover and above, kids attending the Currier Museum of the Art’s Summer Block Party in July get their faces painted by young artists from Manchester Central High School.

Also on the cover It’s a long weekend, make the most of it with live music at area restaurants. Find our Music This Week listing on page 32.
