Hey neighbor! We dig through venue, farm and town calendars so you don't have to. Here's what's worth putting on your calendar across Ulster, Orange & Dutchess, from girls' nights to kid-friendly mornings.
This weekend's picks (Nov 6 – 8, 2026)
Willie Nile at The Falcon
A New York rock-and-roll songwriter at a dinner-and-music club perched over a waterfall. Dinner is first-come (no reservations), so arrive early if you want to eat.
Pajama Jam at Keegan Ales
