Jam-Packed January Weekend

Another jam-packed few days of CNY events will make this weekend an intriguing, musical and delicious one.

Shake off the January slumps of sickness and perceived boredom. There are plenty of CNY events taking place this weekend, and there is something for everyone. This late January weekend is perfect for special dinners or looking antique tables for your own dinners, tea parties or snow parties, fund raising or star gazing and/or if you’re looking to indulge in great music. The weather will be mild and comfortable, so excuses to get out are limited. Make the best of these these nights and days!
