Stanford students’ weekly digest for arts events and opportunities

Midwinter Night’s Dream 

If you're looking for places to take your family for family weekend in a few days, look no further! Lots of arts events are happening just for your special visitors. Take them out to see some theater (Shakes’s A Midsummer Nights Dream), dance (Rhythms Multicultural Show), or a film screening and artist talk (guest Vincent Martell is coming!). There are lots of low-key workshops and talks, too—or if that’s not their thing, a fun day out at the Cantor Arts Center and Anderson Collection is always a safe bet. I hope you’re all having a wonderful week 7!
