Comedy After Dark: Caitlin Cook
January 27
Head to the Park Theater for some Friday night laughs with comedian Caitlin Cook. “Not your conventional standup, Caitlin Cook combines witty one-liners and scintillating storytelling with hilariously irreverent musical comedy and projected visuals.” Sounds like an entertaining evening! Tickets start at $22.

The Sweetheart Deal Exhibition Opening

The exhibition opens on Saturday, but will be up (and the deal good) through February 18.
