Tonight’s the time in downtown Dayton for their First Friday events. Galleries, restaurants and shops will host a variety of free events, including art exhibit openings and live music. And as you wander around you will be hearing Rev Cool from right here on WYSO because many of the places have tuned in 91.3.And tonight at the Victoria comedienne Kathleen Mdigan will be there. She has made a name for herself around the globe and has been seen extensively on TV including, “The Tonight Show”, “The Late Show with David Letterman” and lots of others. And I’m going to be there. Check it out at victoriatheatre.com

Also Friday is the opening for “Nunsense” which is a hilarious talent show staged by five survivors of the Little Sisters of Hoboken nunnery. The rest of the sisters have succumbed to botulism after eating vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia, Child of God. thedaytonplayhouse.com

And if you want to do some Contra dancing then also on Friday head over to the Michael Solomon Pavilion which is in the Dayton Community Golf Course. Instruction at 7:30….dancing 8 – 11. cityfolk.org

Saturday evening at UD they’ve got the Minneapolis Guitar Quartet and they’ll play everything from Purcell and Debussy to Stravinsky. Go to udayton.edu and search for artsseries
