The forecast includes rainy weather through the weekend, resulting in the cancellation or rescheduling of some events like Medfield Day (cancelled) and Dedham Day (rescheduled), but there are still activities to enjoy indoors, if you are willing to venture out!

The FSU Planetarium presents an immersive audio-visual experience of Pink Floyd's album, The Dark Side of the Moon, and the Friends of Westwood Library hold a book sale. Mother Brook Arts and Community Center offers visitors a chance for hands-on creativity while shopping for discounted pottery, and Junk Teens holds a furniture and household item giveaway.

On Wednesday, there's a documentary film by Wayfarer Studio being presented at Dedham Middle School, and the community is invited to a public forum to discuss plans for a new Westwood Fire Station1.

Stay warm, stay dry, and enjoy your weekend!
