Moms Take the Stage for Mother's Day, & more: Best Bets for the Weekend

Candy Johansen
Mom's take the stage for Mother's Day - and really, who else belongs there? - this weekend at the Cotuit Center for the Arts.

Of course you celebrate your mother every day. (Don't you?)

But this weekend all the stops are out. It’s Mother’s Day weekend, and in Cotuit there’s a group of moms who plan to spend their holiday on stage singing and dancing, in hopes of entertaining, amazing, and embarrassing their offspring.

More details.

Folk music icon Pater Yarrow - yes, that Peter Yarrow, of Peter, Paul, & Mary - of Puff the Magic Dragon and countless other legendary songs - helps kick of a new music series in Harwich. More details.

Artist Jay Critchley is a well-known figure in Provincetown, sometimes for unusual performance art, or creations that make a political statement. Now the Provincetown Art Association and Museum is launching an exhibit about his work. More details. 

Dog-owners know: if it’s May, the time is coming to an end when dogs are welcome on local beaches. But before the summer ban sets in, there’s a party this weekend to give the dogs one last legal visit to Craigville Beach. More details.

Steve Junker and Kathi Scrizzi Driscoll discuss upcoming events every Wednesday on All Things Considered. Audio of this week's conversation is posted above - give it a listen.
