Whether you need some family time, a date night or day out with your girlfriends, you have plenty of options this weekend.
Start by shopping for a good cause in Winnetka before spending time at festivals for families and bookworms, or one celebrating Jewish culture. If you would rather see a show, Light Opera Works’ newest musical opens this Saturday.
Here are five things to do this weekend:
Winnetka Summer Antiques Show
Find gorgeous antiques sold by dealers from more than 12 states. Plus, a portion of ticket sales will go to Lambs Farm.
