Weekend Picks -- Laugh, Drink, and Get Centered
Friday November 6, 2009
- New York Comedy Festival -- Laugh it up all weekend long during the New York Comedy Festival. Featured performers include Tracy Morgan, Ricky Gervais, Bill Maher, and many more. I'm going to see the hilarious Bill Burr on Friday night.
- Cook.Drink.Eat.Live -- Sample treats from New York City's top chefs and sip fine wines at this three-day food and wine event at The Tunnel & La.Venue (608 West 28th Street). Enjoy tastings and cooking demos from Ted Allen and other foodie celebs.
- Go Ice Skating -- The Pond at Bryant Park is open for skating this weekend. The Lasker and Wollman Rinks in Central Park are also open, so what are you waiting for?
- Spit & Twit -- Join Bottlerocket and City Winery for the first-ever, real-time interactive wine tasting. Taste more than 100 wines from all over the globe, then use Twitter to broadcast and compare notes with other winos as you sample. Tickets are $35 -- or 2 for the price of 1 if you purchase online.
- Meditate NYC -- Get centered at this free day of meditation with instruction by speakers from a great variety of meditation traditions. The event takes place on Sunday from 3pm-7pm at Judson Memorial Church (55 Washington Square South) and is sponsored by the New York Buddhist Council. The Sunday event also kicks off a week of free open houses at dozens of meditation groups and dharma houses in the five boroughs.
