Fun Events for Saturday, April 11 in Greensboro

Spring has really started the social ball rolling here in Greensboro, with tons of fun events. Coming up tomorrow are three that I would like to recommend, in chronological order ( I know you can make all three of these!):


Potters of the Piedmont hosts the Pottery Festival at its new indoor location, the Leonard Recreation Center at 6324 Ballinger Road, Greensboro, NC 27410. This is in the Guilford College area, going toward the airport area. Admission and parking are absolutely free! The show will be held on Saturday, April 11th, for one day, so make sure to come out! It's from 10am to 4pm and will showcase the work of over 50 potters from North and South Carolina and Virginia. Visit www.pottersofthepiedmont.com for more information.


 
Next, you'll want to head to Lawndale Drive to visit Geeksboro Coffeehouse Cinema at 2134 Lawndale Drive, Greensboro, NC 27408 for their celebration of International Tabletop Gaming Day! This 12-hour gaming extravaganza runs from noon to midnight and will feature a hot dog lunch, A Magic: The Gathering card draft tournament, a Cards Against Humanity charity event, and loads of the best board games, including tournaments for two of the most popular games, Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride! Visit https://www.facebook.com/events/357098401153426/ for more specifics on events and times.


Wind up you super fun day with the Greensboro Downtown Residents' Association's 2015 Sip-n-Stroll, a tour of downtown Greensboro finest drinking and dining establishments (as well as a bookstore that serves wine!)--the walking tour, which I have covered in depth here http://whatsgoodingreensboro.blogspot.com/2015/03/greensboro-downtown-residents.html , goes from 1pm to 5pm, with tastings of craft beer and wine, commemorative tasting glasses, and a live concert afterward, from 5-7pm (after which you can head back to Geeksboro for more gaming!) . You can still purchase tickets online for Sip-n-Stroll 2015--click the link above for all the details!
