“what’s going on this weekend”, you ask?
It’s May, and Burlington is officially blooming, both environmentally and socially. Finally I am able to rip my eyes away from nyc papers and magazines and happily focus on what’s going on locally. To get super-super local, Borough is hosting a closing weekend to celebrate the finale of our current exhibit Entropic Restructed. Haven’t stopped by yet to see this gorgeous show? Don’t sweat it! We’ll be open all weekend. Here, in short format, is a little view of what’s going on in Burlington’s art scene this weekend:
Friday, May 7th:
First Friday Art Walk! Events in our South End include:
Closing of Entropic Restructed, Borough Gallery, 5-8*

Sunday May 9th:
Final day to catch the closing of Entropic Restructed, Borough Gallery 10am-3pm
Flynn Avenue Sunday Market, 10am-3pm. The Sunday Market is a big mash up of artist market, farmers’ market and flea market, all taking place in the parking lot of our 180 Flynn Avenue building. Hosted by Mary at Vintage Inspired, this Sunday is the launch of what will be a summer long event. Definitely check it out, definitely get in touch with Mary if you want to be a part of it!
So come out this weekend and catch some art, peruse some markets, go to a few shows…and don’t forget to buy your tickets for the Spielpalast Cabaret, it opens next weekend!
ps-
On Monday, May 10th, there will be a City Hall meeting to discuss formally establishing the Pine Street Corridor as “Burlington’s South End Arts District”. This meeting, put forward by City Councilor Joan Shannon, could result in the installations of signs directing residents and tourists to South End artist studios and businesses. That, of course, would be awesome, so I fully encourage you to attend!
* Just a note: Borough is not affiliated with Art Map Burlington, but will be open during their First Friday events.
