Learn Moreabout PBS online sponsorship- Hi, I'm Dave Wagner with WRCJ 90.9 here to tell you about some events to go and check out this weekend and beyond in Metro Detroit.
Friday through Sunday is the Ribs R&B Music Festival weekend in Hart Plaza, where you guessed it, there will be barbecue and R&B on the riverfront.
Featured artists are Next, Glenn Jones, and Adina Howard.
Friday through Sunday the city of Dundee is celebrating their bicentennial.
Pickleball tournaments, historical scavenger hunts, and monster truck rides are just a few of the unique activities that will be happening at that three day festival.
And let me tell you, this weekend has so much more going on, including the antique yard sale trail along Michigan's Thumbcoast.
You can shop over 150 miles of antiques following M29 and M25 through scenic waterfront communities and beaches.
On Wednesday, August 14th, families can head to Eastern Market Shed 5 in Detroit for the Be My Neighbor Day, hosted by Detroit PBS and the Michigan Learning Channel.
There will be free resources for families, fun activities, and a dance party led by none other than Daniel Tiger.
And of course, this time of year brings sunflower blooms, and DeBuck's Family Farm is having their Sunflower Festival Friday through August 25th.
And there's a ton more happening around Metro Detroit, so stick around for a few more options, and have a great weekend.
