CNY Events this Busy September Weekend

This weekend’s CNY event guide features fashion, plays, music, a scavenger hunt and more to end this summer the right way.

Hello! Thanks for tuning into our weekly weekend CNY events guide, where we give a condensed list of all the great things going on in and around town. Autumn begins in one week, and so next week’s edition will contain enough pumpkin spice to make a hipster gag. For now, please enjoy another iced coffee listing. May this weekend be live music-filled. May you cozy up with a special someone at a play. May you find great local ideas for fall fashion. May you eat enough meatballs so that you turn into one. May you explore our city in competitive fashion. Again, there is too much to enjoy. But if you want a change of scenery, Rochester’s Fringe Festival is going on throughout this weekend.
