What's Up This Weekend

A quick apology for not sharing our picks for “What’s up this weekend” last week. I (Shannan) lead the charge for this post and my family was on a vacation adventure in Washington DC & New York City and I didn’t have access to a laptop.

I hope you enjoy this week’s picks and get out and see our beautiful city this weekend.  As always, if you know of an event you think our readers would enjoy, please feel free to leave it in the comments. Also, you can always submit events to us by emailing FamilyFriendlyCincinnati(@)gmail.com.
