Free Stuff in Charlotte and The Quail Hollow Open
This is another weekend in Charlotte jam-packed with festivals, art, music, and family fun.
Art in Charlotte
There are First Friday free gallery crawls in the NoDa and South End neighborhoods.
In NoDa, the Evening Muse is serving up free music during the crawl.
Also for art lovers is the Spring Into Arts Invitational in Concord on Saturday. Besides browsing through the work of exceptional regional artists, you can also watch works in progress that will be started and finished during the festival. There will be kids activities too.
Charlotte Family Fun
Tonight is a perfect evening to go see the Charlotte Knights. Starting at 4:05, there will be a free Fun Fest outside the stadium, with all sorts of baseball-themed attractions. Your kids can get free personalized baseball cards and Sports Illustrated for Kids covers.
In the mood for the beach? Then start heading east. But stop at Matthews, where BeachFest 2009 will be in full swing. Enjoy sand sculptures, beach music, beach volleyball, and just about everything else you love about the beach. (Well, except for the ocean.)
