Dance, Doodle & Discover: This Week Around the Squares
This week’s got everything from gooey Fluff Fest treats and Aeronaut’s stein-holding showdown to rooftop cooking with Chef Joe Gatto and comedy that’ll leave your sides sore. If you’d rather move than munch, try candlelit yoga, bootcamps in Kendall, or beginner pickleball. Families can head to Danehy Park Day or the Cambridge Science Carnival, while night owls can lean into Oktoberfest, doodling over beers, or a Good Will Hunting movie night. However you do the Squares—foodie, artsy, outdoorsy, or just looking for something new—there’s plenty here to pull you off the stoop.
