St. Patrick's Day is Friday, Persian New Year is Monday, and there's lots of celebrating this weekend! Head to Canton for an all-day St. Patrick's Day celebration or Scituate for a St. Patrick's Day parade. Stop by the public library on Saturday to learn about Persian New Year and enjoy some treats.

It's also an exciting weekend for Westwood's high schoolers and their families. Westwood High School students perform in their spring musical, Twelfth Night. Xaverian Brothers High School competes for the state championship title in the MIAA Division 1 Ice Hockey state final.

Those are just a few highlights. Read on for more ideas to help fill your weekend with entertainment!
