Your Weekend: August 20–23
Summer’s not done with us yet. Thursday kicks off with perreo at Ferxxo Edition in Patchogue, while Friday brings Kompa vibes to Freeport. Weekend warriors can choose their own adventure: get your hands flour-dusted at a cavatelli workshop in Northport, solve a murder mystery pub crawl in Huntington Village, or keep it chill at SecretSeshLI in Holbrook.
Feeling virtuous? Two stewardship programs need volunteers—pull invasives at Bayard Saturday or tend the gardens at Sunken Meadow Sunday. Plus: open mic with General George, a closing night film screening, and a free all-abilities animal meet-up. Something for literally everyone.
The Editor’s Pick
Open Mic Night w/ General George @ Nautilus Roasting — General George hosts an open mic at Nautilus Roasting every other Thursday night. Bring your guitar, your poetry, your whatever—it’s free, low-pressure, and the coffee’s legit. Huntington Station spot on New York Avenue with easy street parking after 6.
