Greensboro, we’re here to brighten your Monday morning as always.
This week is about holiday spirit if you’re in the mood. You’ll find pie giveaways, holiday markets, friendsgivings, vibesgiving, pupsgiving, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra and more.

Not quite ready for the holiday season? There’s speed dating, cooking classes, a marathon, Latin night, the astronomy club, and free concerts among all the other local shows.
