Would it be cheesy to say there are some reel cool events this week? The Jewish and Israeli Film Festival continues and theres a film festival fundraiser at Woodward Theater for local musician Jim Bundy. You can also catch all the 2020 Oscar-nominated short documentaries on the big screen over at Garfield Theatre.

The Winter Salsa Social offers dance lovers a chance to cut a rug over at Woodward Theater, while the Sheer Elite International Dance Competition and Convention in Sharonville is a fine place to watch others perfecting their art.

Ah, art. Its the end of the month, and you know what that means! Final Friday, when the majority of art galleries around town are open late. The Cincinnati Art Museums Art After Dark theme this month is Monochromatic. Dress up in black and white and go see The Levee: A Photographer in the American South before it closes on Sunday.

The Cyclones are back for a home stand this weekend and theyll be giving away kids jerseys on Friday night to the first 1,500 kids ages 2-12 through the door. On Saturday, brave the cold and join other crazy ... I mean hardy ... souls race along the riverfront and through the transit tunnels for the Cyclones Frozen 5K & 10K.
