It is officially summer! Which means the sun is hot, the lakes are calling your name, and the firework shows are plentiful. We have an abundance of weekend events occurring in the Corning area to prep you for the mid-week Fourth of July. Check them all out below!
Thursday
If you haven’t already, go to the farmer’s market in Riverfront Park! What are you waiting for? (I finally tried the amazing donuts, by the way. Those alone are worth the trip.)
Friday
Kick off the summer season by joining us on the Urban Arts Crawl! This one is bound to be a great one, as you will literally be able to get?into the art. At Exhibit A, you can to sit for a picture for Tyler Dean as he puts you into one of the artist’s pieces. All that and more! Find the info right here, and afterwards, join us for a drink at the Post-Crawl Meet-up at the Radisson Hotel at 8pm.
Later, make sure to stop by Brick House Brewery for the Royal Tease Album Release Party at 9pm. The band will be playing some of their original songs off the album!
More info here.
Saturday
Did you miss goat yoga last time? Don’t worry, you?re in luck! This Saturday, the ZiegenVine Homestead is hosting their very own goat yoga event again! Yoga practicers of all levels are welcome to join in for the 45 minute session. What?s goat yoga, you may ask? Practice your shavasana alongside goats as they hop on your mat, eat beside you or cuddle up. Get ready for a whole new kind of flow.
Find all the info right here!
Saturday is also your day for fireworks. Not one, not two, but three locations will be boasting fireworks shows on Saturday evening. Tioga Downs, Eldridge Park in Elmira, and Myers Park in Lansing will all be shooting off the colorful explosions, so pick the place closest to you and enjoy!
Sunday
Sunday seems to be a pretty chill day in the Finger Lakes region. My recommendation? Find yourself a water source – a pool, lake, pond, hose, whatever – and chill. The temperature will be close to 100 degrees! Stay cool, friends!
What are your plans this weekend? Tell us in the comments below! And let us know what’s happening for your Fourth of July!
