Russian Winter Festival at The Egg

What an amazing concidence! A loyal follower (and active participant!) of this blog contacted me yesterday to make sure I knew that the 4th annual Russian Winter Festival culminates this weekend at The Egg Theater at the Empire State Plaza in downtown Albany. Go figure!?

From noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday, March 3rd, you can enjoy traditional food including blini, music, costumes, crafts, art, exhibitions, films, a Tchaikovsky piano competition, poetry recital and more! Event sponsors are the New Russia Cultural Center, WAMC-Northeast Public Radio, Capital Repertory Theater and Magic of Music Studio.

It's supposed to be rainy all day on Saturday, so if you live in the greater Capital Region, then why not expand your "understanding and appreciation of Russian folk art, traditions and culture." Admission is $7 for adults, $3 for children ages 5 to 12, and free for children ages 4 and under.
