Things To Do around Westwood This Weekend and Beyond - Friday, February 20th - Tuesday, February 24th
Darlene Cancell
Editor
This weekend offers a number of community celebrations - a Spring Festival Celebration, a K-Pop Demon Hunter Party, and a celebration of the season with the New England tradition of maple sugaring.
For onstage entertainment, check out The Moonbellies, a unique ensemble performing a wide range of music on less frequently seen instruments - washtub bass, ukulele, button accordion, and bouzouki banjo. At Norwood Theatre, catch a little humor with performances by local comedians.
Heading into the early part of next week, Westwood residents have a chance to meet their new town administrator, Connor Read, right before taking advantage of the newly reintroduced in-person attendance option at Westwood Select Board's hybrid meeting on Monday, February 23rd.
Also, check out the opportunities to connect with nature through community stargazing and a guided nature hike.
