Lots going on this weekend, from the artsy, to the musical, to, well, tacos. Take a look: 

Friday, Oct. 6 

Cake comes to the South Side Ballroom with their wide-ranging and ironic take on indie rock. Expect droll lyrics, deadpan vocals and eclectic music with plenty of front man John McCrea’s signature trumpet. The ballroom is about halfway between Convention Center and Cedars stations. 

Saturday, Oct. 7 

The first Saturday of every month means free admission and fun family programming at the Nasher Sculpture Center. It’s Target First Saturdays, and it’s a great way to bring out your preschool-to-elementary-school child’s artistic talent. The program features a lineup of activities that encourages creative thought through a monthly “Big Idea.” This go-around, the Big Idea is “Poses,” and the art project is “Get Wiki With It.” Take any DART Rail line to St. Paul Station and walk three blocks north to Flora Street, or catch the D-Link.

Enjoy The Marketplace Garland, with its fresh produce, baked goods, jams & jellies, sweet breads, culinary items, unique items from local artisans and craftsmen and more. The Marketplace Garland supports Good Samaritans of Garland and you’re welcome – but not required – to donate canned and boxed food items. This is the second-to-last market of the season! It takes place in the heart of Garland's historic downtown square, near Downtown Garland Station.
