Friday, November 10th

This Friday & Saturday is the ever so popular Mack’s Merry Market that is put on at the Red Barn at Sycamore Farms.  This year the Butler’s Pantry is testing out a pop-up restaurant that is sure to be a success! The market kicks off Friday with live music, a cash bar, giveaways, food, & lots of shopping.  Vendors are hand-picked to showcase their handmade goods & vintage items. This is one event you don’t want to miss, tickets are still available online for $10.

If you are slightly obsessed with all things Harry Potter, you have to visit the Yellow Umbrella Friday evening.  They are hosting a “Fantastic Feasts and Where to Eat Them” dinner.  Every witch or wizard will be presented with 7 courses, each inspired by a Harry Potter book (in order). The cost per person is 2 galleons and 8 sickles ($18 for all you muggles). Dress robes not required, but highly encouraged! Send reservations by owl post (or call 765-569-2233 if you don’t have an owl). Reservations are required by Thursday at 5, as this menu will require nearly as much preparation as polyjuice potion.

If you need to sit back and enjoy a few laughs this weekend. Grab a ticket and head down to the Indiana Theatre for a comedy act starring Chonda Pierce. Emmy® -nominated and best-selling comedian Chonda Pierce or “the country comic” as Billboard Magazine dubbed her, has been making audiences laugh for more than two decades with her winning combination of fierce wit and southern charm. The show will run from 7-10pm and also feature Karyn Williams.
