Our arts critics have already recommended 45 great things to do this week, our music critics have picked the 23 best concerts, and we've compiled all of the holiday concerts, performances, and makers markets happening in Seattle. But after all of that, there are still hundreds more events happening. To prevent some of the quirkier and more extraordinary ones from slipping through the cracks, we've compiled them here—from a Santa Claus Conquers the Martians marathon to a flash mob pillow fight, and from a night of protest sing-alongs to plenty of ugly sweater parties.

3. Holiday Music Concert & CD Release Party
Every year, Social Outreach Seattle invites local musicians to contribute tracks to a new edition of a holiday album, the proceeds from which are then directly donated to assist Seattle's homeless during the winter.

14. An Evening with Auntie Mame
While in the middle of my college years, I received from my roommate David something of an education in what I can only describe as gay cinema. It’s not that the films I was shown had gay people in them, but that they were held in high regard by a class of gay men. The very best of these films was Auntie Mame. I fell in love with its star, Rosalind Russell, almost at the exact moment she appeared on the screen. And David, my gay guide through this 1958 classic, had lots of information about her, her performance, and how this brilliant piece affected her life and society. To this day, I still regard Auntie Mame as one of the highest of achievements of that very American decade. CHARLES MUDEDE

15. Father Daughter 2-Year Anniversary

Or be a goody-goody and go after work; the events will last until 9 or whenever the stores close.

19. Hula Hula 10-Year Anniversary Party
In our Thanksgiving issue, Rich Smith praised Hula Hula's "garish tropical decor and [...] electrified drinks" and suggested that you head there to indulge in the worst Turkey Day ever: getting drunk on a booze volcano, singing solo karaoke, and "living out the touching, but ultimately dull, hipster movie of your loneliness." Sadly, Hula Hula will soon be relocating, as its sister bar, Tini Bigs, is closing after 20 years. Raise a mournful, neon-colored drink to Tini's demise. Raise a lot of glasses, if you want: tiki drinks and call booze will be half off all night.

20. Jamie Boudreau
The Seattle bar Canon has a lot to brag about: an antique cash register, a bar stained with Angostura bitters (on purpose), and an extensive and beautiful liquor collection that has won it a number of awards and accolades.

23. Maker's Mark #ShareDelicious Dinner
At this four-course dinner, each dish (from roasted pork belly to bananas foster bread pudding) is inspired by Maker's Mark—and comes with a craft cocktail full of (you guessed it) Maker's Mark. All of the ticket proceeds will go towards Share Our Strength's campaign to end hunger in America.

Norwegian quiz! Is "Julebukking" a) doing your holiday accounting before the year's up; b) Scandinavian rodeo or c) a cross between caroling and trick-or-treating that possibly originated in Thor cosplay in pagan Northern Europe and featured a procession of people carrying goat heads? It's c, but the Ballard Elks are going with the more contemporary version and keeping things blessedly decapi-goat free: just a charming Christmas "village" in the Lodge Hall where "shopkeepers" will hand you food and drink as holiday music plays.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY

77. The Eyes of the Totem
There's some extra-cool local history behind this screening of a 1927 silent film shot in Tacoma. The studio behind The Eyes of the Totem lasted only four years and produced just two other films.

" Yes, indeed, we know you needed to be told that a 1964 film about Santa being kidnapped by Martians to bring joy to the Red Planet is not your typical critical darling. But did you know that MoPOP is playing it three times in one day? Stay for all three to achieve your quite literal holiday madness.

85. Say My Name: Name and Gender Marker Change Clinic
If your legal identity doesn't match up with your gender, this event may be very important for you.
