ART/YOGA Thurs March 19, Henry Art Gallery (4100 15th Ave NE)
This free (with gallery admission) and open-to-the-public yoga class happens every third Thursday at 12:30 p.m., and according to the Henry website, is “taught side by side with video art, creating an immersive visual and yogic experience that activates and engages all the senses.”
Nearby snack: Portage Bay Cafe (4130 Roosevelt Way NE) has the best toppings bar in town (a wonderment of syrups, fruits, nuts, and more) for those who wish to get down to business with their order of pancakes or French toast. Three words: Whipped. Cream. Bowl. Best to visit after the yoga.

MUSIC Sat March 21, the High Dive (513 N 35th St)
Sometimes you’re out and about and someone hands you a record and, unrelatedly, on the ride home, your friend hands you their fancy new vaporizer pen that gets you so stoned that you get inside your apartment, put on the record (Wind Burial’s We Used to Be Hunters), sit in the chair closest to the speakers, and allow the deep waves of post-psych to hypnotize you while you consider all the nice lamps and Christmas lights in your living room for the entire duration of the record. I bet you can be half as stoned to see them live and still have a reasonably epic experience.
Nearby Snack: Go to Pie (3515 Fremont Ave N) and get a sweet or savory pie—or both—in a convenient handheld size.
CRAFT Sat March 21, Pocket Theater (8312 Greenwood Ave N)
Ramble over to Seattle’s very first Felt-a-Thon—a charity event benefiting Habitat for Humanity—during which local puppeteers and artists will attempt to make 12 puppet videos in 24 hours! What! This also coincides with World Puppetry Day! What! (???) (!!!)
Nearby snack: While I have never been to a Wing Dome (7818 Greenwood Ave N), I’ve talked to enough exuberant people throughout the years to understand that this is A GREAT PLACE TO EAT SO MANY WINGS! (!!!)
MUSIC Tues March 24, Q Nightclub (1426 Broadway)
DJs Explorateur and Veins offer the gift of Rare Air every so often—a night of spaced-out ambient sounds floated through Q’s state-of-the-art sound system. This installment will feature a rare performance by special guest and electronic-music genius Randy Jones and consciousness-expanding visuals by Christian Petersen. Bring a sleeping bag, yoga mat, or pillow—horizontalness is encouraged.
Nearby snack: You can’t go wrong with a falafel sandwich from Mediterranean Express (1417 Broadway), which is right across the street.
