24-26 Friday & Saturday 8pm; Sunday 2pm. Theater at the Mount presents Fiddler on the roof. This classic musical is the story of Tevye, a poor dairyman, who tries to instill in his five daughters the traditions of his community as the world outside his village faces great change. Love of family and culture mixed with "laughter and tears" make this Tony Award winner one of America's most beloved musicals of all times. This story is told through wonderful songs such as, "Tradition", "If I Were a Rich Man", "Matchmaker", "To Life", and "Sunrise, Sunset". $20 adults ($15 matinee) $10 children. mwcc.edu/tam/shows/

25 Saturday 8pm. John Fannon of "New England" Bull Run Restaurant Shirley, MA

25 Saturday. Wachusett Mountain. Glenn Stewart. 8-10pm. Throughout the span of his 25 year career entertaining crowds of all sizes, from the smallest of clubs to the largest arenas, Glenn puts on a top notch show performing hits from his original catalog as well as hits from today’s top country / rock radio station play lists.

26 Sunday 1pm. Tower Hill Botanic Garden. Hypertufa Workshop. Member $60, Nonmember $65 Instructor: Debra Pope. In this hands-on workshop, students will design and produce their own unique custom Hypertufa planters for their garden. "Hypertufa" is a mixture of cement, peat moss and perlite which resembles tufa, the light-weight porous limestone rock which was often carved into watering troughs, sinks, etc. Because of its porous nature, tufa makes an ideal planter, but it is difficult to come by and very expensive. Hypertufa provides the best of both worlds - a lightweight custom design but at an inexpensive cost. Please bring a filter mask, heavy rubber or latex gloves, trash bags and a mold (details will be provided upon registration).

26 Sunday 1pm - 5pm. Fruitland's Museum Winterfest Weekends every weekend in January and February. Grounds for sledding, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Check out www.fruitlands.org for more information.

26 Sunday. Wachusett Mountain. Josh Briggs. 4-6pm. Josh Briggs of “Five on Friday” has been described as a new “organic” band that is growing out of a desire to take popular songs and perform them live with a raw, amplified acoustic twist, strong vocals, and they never take themselves too seriously. It’s all about playing music and having fun with the crowd.
