weekend rundown
Why tonight? As a student, you have free admittance Thursdays between 5 and 8 p.m. While this freebie doesn’t include special exhibits, there’s more than enough to see in the general galleries. You can easily spend three hours browsing premier Canadian, contemporary, international, and indigenous artwork, photography, and prints.
Tonight, catch the latest Beerfest Battle of the Bands at the Lunenberg Pub & Bar (14 Waller St.), where every Thursday, local bands compete to win $500 in cash and prizes. This bar is only steps away from campus, making it a student hot spot any night of the week. Your vote determines the winner, admission is free, and an added incentive, the musical battle is complemented by $2 beers.
s, there are labs, papers, and midterms to slog through before the end of the term. But take a break, because March 17 is one day you won’t want to miss out on. St. Patty’s, one of the most cherished university holidays, invites students to express their appreciation of beer and all things green.
If you have a friend at Carleton University, the perfect incentive to visit them is to meet up at Carmen’s Veranda (1169 Bank St.).
We’ve got six weeks left until exams, and while hitting the books is imminent, make sure you take the time to check out some of the amazing events happening on campus and throughout the city. This weekend’s rundown will get you back into gear for the last half of the semester.
Don’t miss out! Cast those textbooks aside and take the opportunity to catch up on everything the city has to offer—after all, who really studies during reading week?

Midterms are fast approaching, and we could all use a break! Escape by watching A Royal Affair at the ByTowne Cinema at 4 p.m. It’s a costume drama that tells the true story of a physician who brought the Enlightenment’s values of reason over blind religion to Denmark in the 18th century. History comes to life on screen, plus there’s some bodice-ripping sex.
