Gary Clark Jr.
The Austin guitarist plays the Keswick with WXPN behind it. Blues, soul and a whole lot of volume in a room where every seat sees the fretboard.
Gary Clark Jr.
The Austin guitarist plays a room that seats about 1,300, which is smaller than he normally works. WXPN presents. A Tuesday, so the Glenside parking situation is manageable.
Beatles vs Stones
Abbey Road and Satisfaction trade songs across a full set and the audience picks a side. LaJolla runs this format nationally and the Keswick books it most years.

STC Fall Tree Giveaway
Abington's Shade Tree Commission gives away free trees for the fall planting season. No time or pickup spot is posted on the township calendar, so the details sit on the commission's tree giveaway page.
Witches of Narberth
Downtown turns into a costumed scavenger hunt, with kids tracking down witches stationed in the shops and collecting treats along the way. The hunt runs the afternoon and ends when the prizes run out.
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
Stop-motion built one painstaking frame at a time, and the one film that covers both holidays. A good first scary-adjacent movie for kids not ready for the rest.
