Looking for Something to Do in the New City Area?

Here are some events on tap for the weekend.

The weather will be clear but chilly for this Saturday and Sunday. The very last of the fall leaves should still be hanging on at least a few branches. It is a good weekend for church fairs and theater. Enjoy the weekend with some of these activities:

Victorian Tea: The Bricktown Inn Bed & Breakfast will hold a Victorian Tea at 12:30 and 3:30 p.m. on Saturday. Reservations are required. $27 per person. The inn is at 112 Hudson Ave. in Haverstraw. Call 845.429.8447 for more information.

Nyack Photos in Nyack: An exhibition of photography by Sally Savage will be open from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. This exhibit calls attention to the fact that Savage, now a Nyack resident, has in fact also been focusing her camera on Nyack people, events, and scenes for many years. The exhibit is at the historical Society of the Nyacks at 50 Piermont Ave.
