It may snow all weekend long, but don't hide under a blanket on your couch.

Get out and enjoy some music at local establishments, head out to a museum or art gallery or even go for a hike. Or you can consider one of these five options.

Snofest

8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 3

Linwood Recreation Centre, 5279 Ament Line

The whole family can have a breakfast hosted by firefighters, take in some sno-pitch (slo-pitch in the snow), head over to the library for some games and crafts, check out FIVE the Magician, rocket launching activities, horse races and more at this great community event. There will be food booths and a licensed area where you can grab alcoholic beverages.

Waterloo Winter Market

10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 4

RIM Park, 2001 University Ave., Waterloo

Get out of the cold and pick up some handmade items — perhaps for a special person? (Valentine's Day is on the way, ya know.) Get some sock puppets (they can double as mittens!), some fresh art for your walls or maybe some candles that smell like summer. Roasted marshmallow, anyone?

Free film series: Where I Belong

2 p.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 4

Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery, 101 Queen St. N., (inside Centre in the Square), Kitchener

Each Sunday in February, KWAG is hosting a free film screening of Canadian documentaries. This Sunday's film tells the story of Arinze Eze, who was born in Canada and raised in Nigeria, but moves back "home." The film looks at how he tries to balance African traditions with living in Canada. A discussion will follow each film.

Sledding Extravaganza

2 p.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 3

Brubacher House, Frank Tompa Drive (next to Columbia Lake), Waterloo

Grab your toboggan or crazy carpet and hit the big hill at the museum and at the University of Waterloo soccer fields. Inside the Brubacher House there will be hot chocolate and a roaring fire. If sledding isn't your thing, take a winter hike to see an active beaver dam on the lake.

Willie P. Bennett Tribute Concert

8 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 3

Silence, 46 Essex St., Guelph

This is a unique five-day concert event that goes across southern Ontario that includes Guelph, Toronto, Hamilton and London. The Guelph concert is this Saturday and includes singer-songwriter Tannis Slimmon, country and folk artist Jenny Whiteley, guitarist Rick Taylor, folk-roots-Americana musician Linda McRae and singer-songwriter Barry James Payne, who is the frontman for the roots-Americana band String Bone.

Trails End Brewing will launch its first beer, Grand Valley Pilsner, Saturday at Beertown in Waterloo. (Facebook)

A couple of extras

I can't help myself — I have a couple of extras for this weekend.

I really like craft beer and I love the beer scene here in Waterloo region. Trails End Brew in Waterloo is launching its Grand Valley Pilsner at Beertown Public House in uptown Waterloo Saturday night.

The other is something the fab Craig Norris mentioned on The Morning Edition — a pancake breakfast for those who want to take part in the urban sugaring project. If you have a maple tree on your property, you can tap that tree and get maple syrup. The project has been in Guelph for two years but is expanding to K-W this year. There is an event in Guelph on Saturday for people to buy kits or you can hit up Together We're Bitter brewery in Kitchener on Feb. 10 to get a kit.
