Here is a quick snapshot of what’s happening around town the next 48 hours.
STUFF TO DO
Friday: Starting at 7:30 p.m., Come From Away tells the remarkable true story of kindness, resilience, and unexpected friendships that emerged during one of the world’s darkest moments. It’s the kind of production that will make you laugh, tear up, and leave feeling inspired at the Capitol Theatre in Port Hope.
Friday: Starting at 10 a.m., Built Legacy: The Clench Family offers a fascinating look at one of Cobourg’s most influential families and the lasting impact they had on the community’s history and development. Whether you’re a history buff or simply curious about the stories behind the places you know, it’s a chance to see the past from a new perspective at the Art Gallery of Northumberland in Victoria Hall, Cobourg.
Saturday: Starting at 8 a.m. in Cobourg and Port Hope, and 9 a.m. in Campbellford, Saturday is the perfect excuse to wander a farmers’ market, fill your bags with fresh local produce, homemade baking, flowers, and handcrafted goods, and meet the people who grow and make them. Take your time, chat with the vendors, and enjoy the welcoming community atmosphere at Rotary Harbourfront Park in Cobourg, Queen Street in downtown Port Hope, or downtown Campbellford.
Saturday: Starting at 5 p.m., Port Hope Cruisers is where chrome shines, engines rumble, and classic vehicles take over for a relaxed evening with fellow car enthusiasts. Whether you’re showing off your own ride or simply enjoy admiring vintage and custom cars, it’s a great way to spend a summer evening at 10 Robertson Street in Port Hope.
