The new year is just around the corner and this weekend is packed with events for you to go out with a bang! And if you aren’t the partying type, we have plenty of other great options for you like comedy shows, concerts, movies, and TV shows that can keep you entertained as well. If this still isn’t your cup of tea, today is National Card Playing Day, so grab a group of friends and pull out your best set of cards! Spades anyone?
And if you’re keeping up with Kwanzaa, today marks the principle of Ujima…collective work and responsibility.
