Things to Do This Weekend in Kingston, NY, 5/20-5/22
Not only does the circus come to town for the kids, but there are events for even the most sophisticated adult palates as well happening this weekend! For those seeking some outdoor adventures and markets, you can find plenty to experience scattered throughout our area. And since we live in such a historically rich area- don’t forget to seek out events that highlight our local history!

Don’t forget- It’s always a good time to adopt a new family member. Check out our Furever Friend section on our website here to see some awesome dogs available for adoption at the UCSPCA! Supported by the ever-animal-loving Kimlin Energy!
Below are some of our picks for fun and entertaining events on our calendar this week that we think you may not want to miss!

Mayfest Essential Farmers and Makers Market – Food, art, libations and even kids activities.
Pone Ensemble for New Music 2022 Spring Concert – Classical music at the Old Dutch Church is quite the experience not to be missed
