Check out music, storytelling and art at the 5th annual FLOW Northside Arts Crawl.

This is a great weekend for festivals of all sorts, as well as some mind-bending modern dance.

takes place Saturday from 3PM to 8PM along West Broadway. Highlights include: Asian Dance and storytelling, performances by the Black Storytellers Alliance, live music, live music, theater and spoken word. (My favorite - recognition ceremony for Northside High School graduates who are going to college.)

 has got all sorts of old-time fun: amateur talent contests, ice cream socials, a petting zoo and even a treasure hunt.

 continues through this weekend, with world wakesurfing championships, the coronation of the Queen of the Lakes, fireworks, and special events at the Bakken museum featuring scientific discoveries by inventors young and old.

Rosie Simas Dance presents "It's Strange to Be Here, The Mystery Never Leaves You" featuring new dance work inspired by the words of John O'Donohue. 

(heads up: This production contains nudity).

Chris Yon's "The Infinite Multiverse," a set a of high energy dances featuring Taryn Griggs, Justin Jones and Kristin Van Loon. In the same evening Johanna Meyer and Judy Bauerlein offer up "Stroll," a "humorous, post-modern pantomime."
