What's Going on this Week
MARCH 16, 2011
Take a time-out, plan a future getaway or experience a world of international culture without leaving home turf.
This St. Patty’s Day, get your Irish up and crawl the pubs or help some worthy creatures: The St. Pawtrick’s Day for the Humane Society of New York party invites you to join top-tier party people like Tinsley Mortimer and Wendy Diamond (and their pampered pooches) for a paws-in-the-air celebration to benefit our four-legged friends (Wednesday, March 16, 6-8 p.m.; the Muse Hotel, 130 West 46th Street. Tickets: $50 donation). What you’ll find: Dogs and their humans in their St. Patty’s Day finest, adorable pups available for adoption, pet-friendly beer and a tail-wagging good time.
Spend a girls’ day out Horseback Riding and Wine Tasting with Urban Girl Squad and Outdoor Bound—enjoy a day-trip just an hour and a half out of the city for a ride and a Hudson Valley vineyard visit (Sunday, March 17, 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m., Tickets $139. Pickup is at 73rd Street and Broadway). Spring Break Global Arts Camp for kids at Symphony Space will help introduce kids from 8-12 to music, dance, storytelling, drama and art from around the globe each day in workshops led by professional artists (March 21-25; $400 for the week). Visit French Institute Alliance Francaise (FIAF) NYC for a day-long travel fair devoted to the most sought-after French-speaking hot spots and a chance to win a free trip to Paris (Tuesday March 22, 12-8 p.m., $Free).
Experience world-class culture (practically) in your own backyard. The Martha Graham Dance Company celebrates its 85th Anniversary Season this month (March 15-20; tickets and schedule here), and the films of Japanese director Takashi Miike are featured in Shinjuku Outlaw: 13 From Takashi Miike, a retrospective of his work at Lincoln Center (March 16-21, schedule, tickets and passes here).
