Congratulations on surviving Valentine’s Day! Or did you screw up by buying a blender instead of some bling? It’s not too late to make it up to your sweetie. Love can still be in the air.
Tonight try your hand at painting. Jennifer Harwell Art is hosting a Valentine Paint Party complete with heavy hors d’oeuvres catered by Tria paired with a selection of Tria’s finest wines. Two hours (7-9 p.m.) equals two paintings to proudly hang on the walls at home. Call RIGHT NOW 802-7847 because the event sold out last year. Cost is $50 per person. The gallery is located in SoHo Square, Homewood.
Painting not your special someone’s idea of fun? Try dancing on Saturday night. Not just any dancing … the Tango. Before you whine about not being able to dance, that’s the point. It’s a one-time lesson (guys, you can do one lesson!) taught by Jackie Talley at the Children’s Dance Foundation from 7-9:30 p.m. Space is limited so call RIGHT NOW – 870-0073.
While you’re enjoying dancing, dessert and drinks, you also be supporting the not-for-profit that provides quality community programs to students of all ages and abilities. What I call a win-win. Cost is $50 per couple. Attire is comfy cocktail … it is the Tango after all. The studio is located in downtown Homewood behind Ed’s Pet World at 1715 27th Court South.
No painting and no dancing? Does your honey like music? Because the area’s top professional jazz players take to the stage at Samford University’s Brock Hall Sunday afternoon. It’s SuperJazz and so on my list of things to do. Cost is $5. The event could be kid-friendly, depending on the kid. Don’t take offense because you know what I mean. Samford is located at 800 Lakeshore Drive.
Your snuggle bunny doesn’t like art, dancing or music? You may just need to let them plan this weekend.
