Here’s a look at what’s happening today under the Shivering Songs banner.
It’s Friday! That means today’s schedule is the biggest so far this year. There are shows indoors and outdoors (in a snow dome), music, comedy and a workshop you should definitely check out. Plus, it’s Gallery Hop night. Tie it all together and create your own fun. Do it!
