| The Week in Weird | ||||
| Fri 7/8Boston MetroSomerville in Shorts |
 |
|||
| Did you know that Events INSIDER has the largest list of outdoor movies, theatre, and music in New England? You just need to scroll ALL the way to the bottom of each issue! This one in Somerville is an evening of experimental and animated short films projected on a large outdoor screen in the heart of Union Square. Films will be screened at nightfall, with live music to start during the early evening. Rain date next day. Union Square, Somerville, MA. more |
||||
| Wed 7/6Boston MetroFree Movie preview tix: Another Earth, Zookeeper |
 |
|||
| I’ve got free movie preview tickets for Another Earth, TODAY July 6 in Brookline at 7pm, where they discover a duplicate planet Earth, and Zookeeper, TODAY July 6 in Boston at the Boston Common theatre, the new Kevin James comedy. To win just email johnny@eventsINSIDER.com. Various. more more |
||||
| Fri 7/8 – Sun 7/10Cape CodMashpee Commons Sand Sculpting Festival |
 |
|||
| This one has me scratching my head. Masphee has beaches, but they’re just not close enough to downtown where the Chamber of Commerce wants you to shop shop shop! So they’re trucking in 25 tons of sand to Mashpee Common. There will be live music, a pro will sculpt something great, and amateurs get to play around in the sand, too. Mashpee Commons, Mashpee, MA. more more |
||||
| Thu 7/7 – Sun 7/10New HampshireHillsboro Balloon Festival |
 |
|||
| This event, which is 1.7 hrs from Boston, draws 30,000 people and looks pretty serious. They’ll have a lawn tractor pull, a carnival, tons of music and dance, and fireworks on Saturday. Oh, and balloons! It’s always a good idea at these things to call and reserve your balloon ride in advance! I’m going to go so I can tell you all about it in 2012. Hillsboro, NH. more |
||||
| Thu 7/7 – 7/.10Metro WestThoreau Society Annual Gathering |
 |
|||
| This week has a ton of historical re-enactments, too! Just when you thought the 19th century was going out of style: Thoreau. Loved nature, but lived at Walden Pond just two miles from bustling Concord center. Hated taxes. Bit of an over-idealist. But he’s ours. Go meet some people who like Thoreau way too much. Hope they aren’t preachy about utopia. Various, Concord, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9North ShoreWenham Museum’s World War II Living History Day |
 |
|||
| This is one of only a few World War II re-enactments I’ve ever seen in New England! Re-enactors come and vehicles including a M35 Deuce & a half, an DUKW (duck) amphibious truck, vintage Jeep and an ambulance. A D-Day Veteran will share stories and there will be period songs. The Wenham is an amazing example of a world-class museum in the middle of ‘nowhere’. A true New England gem. Rt 1A, Wenham, MA.978-468-2377. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9 – Sun 7/10North ShoreGlover’s Regiment (Revolutionary War re-enactment) |
 |
|||
| This one’s also small but well worth a visit as an excuse to head to the North Shore. They have a re-enacted military camp from the 1700s, with tents, cooking, craft areas, sea shanties, costumed militia and camp followers. Fort Sewall, Marblehead, MA.781-631-5967. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9Fort Warren150th Anniversary of the Civil War |
 |
|||
| Have you ever been to the Boston Harbor Islands? Here’s an excuse to go! From 11-6 today there will be re-enactments, music, crafts, and lectures to commemorate the Civil War. Suitable for all ages. Georges Island, Boston, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9 – Sun 7/10Rhode IslandCivil War Living History Weekend |
 |
|||
| This year marks the 150th anniversary of the Civil War. A perfect excuse to see this re-enactment down in Rhode Island. Fort Adams State Park, 1 Lincoln Drive, Newport, RI.401-841-0707. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9 – Sun 7/10Rhode IslandNewport Kite Festival |
 |
|||
| While you’re there, check out this kite festival. Seeing kites is great, but the best thing about Kite Festivals is getting to try it yourself and get advice from experts! The big secret about kites is that you can’t just buy a cheap kite and expect to fly it easily. The cheap kites are harder to fly. Brenton Point State Park, Ocean Drive, Newport, RI. more |
||||
| Fri 7/8 – Sun 7/10Southeast MassWhaling City Festival |
 |
|||
| Speaking of seeing whales, which we aren’t, you won’t see any at the Whaling Festival. (Does anybody besides me see a hole there?) But they’ll have three music stages, carnival rides, seafood, crafts, flea market, laser light show, and a motorcycle, car & truck show. Oh, and racing pigs! What happens basically is: (1) get some pigs; (2) they race! Also free ice cream 7/9 as promotion by Webster Bank. Buttonwood Park, New Bedford, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9Metro WestThe Long Arm of the Law |
 |
|||
| Closer to Boston, The Minuteman National Park has re-enactments almost every weekend this summer. The “Long Arm of the Law” will introduce you to 18th century criminals and police. Hartwell Tavern, Rt 2A, Lincoln, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9Boston MetroMicro Mini Car Day@ Larz Anderson Museum |
 |
|||
| You simply must go to the Larz Anderson at some point. Why not this weekend and see tiny clown sized cars? 15 Newton Street, Brookline, MA.617-522-6547. more |
||||
| Sun 7/10Boston MetroMiata Day at Larz Anderson Museum |
 |
|||
| Or the next day, some miatas. 15 Newton Street, Brookline, MA.617-522-6547. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9Cape CodHeritage Gardens Annual Auto Show |
 |
|||
| As much as I like the Larz Anderson, when it comes to cars and museums you just HAVE to see, the Heritage Museums in Sandwich and their annual car show win, hands-down. Heritage Museums & Gardens, Sandwich, MA.508.888.3300. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9 – Sun 7/10Metro WestModel airplanes – CRRC Hand-Launch Classic |
 |
|||
| Or if cars aren’t enough, take an empty field, add model airplane enthusiasts, and a lot of action ensues- especially when they smash into each other! Um, the planes, that is, not the enthusiasts. Off Rt 117. Lunch included in admission. Register ahead for discount. Davis Field, Sudbury, MA.518 798 1321. more |
||||
| Thu 6/30 – Sun 7/10South ShoreBrockton Fair |
 |
|||
| The Brockton County Fair has a demolition derby! I have been, and it’s huge, much larger than the Fiesta Shows carnivals. The derby, pig racing, petting farm, magic show, fireworks, and more are all free, and motorcycle races, wrestling, and- new this year- a live grizzly bear show. Brockton Fairgrounds, Rt 123, Brockton, MA.508-586-8000. more |
||||
| Sun 7/10 – Fri 7/15Metro WestNERF Zombie Overnight Camp |
 |
|||

||||
| Fri 7/8 – Sat 7/9WorcesterIndependence Day Celebration |

||||
| Mon 6/27 – Fri 7/8New HampshireArchaeology Field School |
 |
|||
| The Strawberry Banke Museum, in Southern New Hampshire, is one of only 5 re-enactment museums in New England with live actors. Their ongoing crash course in archaeology for adults and students ages 16 and up continues. You’ll investigate the museum house and get some hands-on field and laboratory experience. This sounds really interesting! Strawberry Banke Museum, Portsmouth, NH. more |
||||
| Sat 7/9 – Sun 7/10New HampshirePowwow at Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum |
 |
|||
| This festival offers drumming, dance, performance, and kid’s crafts. It’s small, like, it’s really small — I’ve been. But smaller festivals often have more spirit and are more fun. If you happen to be in New Hampshire, stop by. Pow wows are awesome. Warner, NH.603-456-2600. more |
