Not intended to be comprehensive, this is just a list of some stuff we’ve noticed for this weekend.

Undoubtedly, the big news is the public unveiling of the biggest news to come out of the Kimbell in some time: Michelangelo’s The Torment of Saint Anthony, the legendary artist’s earliest known painting and widely believed to be the first one he ever did. Created in 1487-88 when he was only 12-13 years old, The Torment of Saint Anthony is one of only four easel paintings by the master known to exist, and one of only two finished ones. It’s the only example of Michelangelo’s work in the Western hemisphere, and it’s now a part of the Kimbell’s permanent collection. This is big, big stuff, folks – get out to the Kimbell and take a look at an incredibly significant piece of history.

And this weekend’s a great time to go, because Saturday is Day in the District, when admission to all the Cultural District’s museums is free. The Modern, the Kimbell, the Carter, the Cowgirl Museum, the Community Arts Center, the Botanic Gardens, and the Log Cabin Village are all free of charge on Saturday.

Don’t forget that Sunday is all-day all-you-can-eat vegan pancakes at Spiral Diner, the best vegan restaurant in the whole universe (and probably the Mirror Universe as well). They’ve also got new Blue Plate specials: the Paul Reuben (thick slice of homemade faux corned beef and a heap of sauerkraut smothered in creamy “Swiss Cheese” Sauce, served on Jewish Rye Bread with Russian dressing, capers, and dijon mustered – with a side of Creamy Pasta Salad and a dill pickle spear), Pasta Salad A-La-Carte (pasta salad featuring organic spiral pasta with red bell peppers, tomatoes, olives, and a creamy-herb dressing), Corn and Potato Chowder, and a Banana Split dessert special (chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry I-Scream with a fresh banana, with chocolate, caramel, vegan whipped cream, peanuts, and sprinkles on top). In addition, their next cooking classes are coming up: Holiday Meals Class on October 26th from 7:00 to 9:00 PM, and Desserts Class on December 7th from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Prepayment of $40 per person per class is required to hold your spot in the class. The classes fill up quickly, so contact them or go by the Diner to register.

Beginning Saturday, our friends at Galery Art Cafe at Jennings & Pennsylvania welcome new art by Jacque Forsher and April Greenlee.

The T&P Tavern has Happy Hour from 4:00 to 9:00, with all Texas beers $2.75. On Saturday, they’ve got No Class performing from 8:00 to midnight.

Lola’s in the Cultural District has The Good Show Live Music Series at 8:00, featuring The Theater Fire, Whiskey Folk Ramblers, and The Southern Sea.

In the Magnolia at the Modern series, the Modern will be showing “Herb and Dorothy” this weekend: Friday 6 & 8 pm, Saturday 5 pm, Sunday 2 & 4 pm.
