Arts, music, and community events fill weekend schedule in Covington

Plenty of activities are available for residents of Covington, Kentucky, this upcoming weekend. From art exhibitions to public events, attendees have a variety of options.

Shealyn Hoehn's exhibit "Tying Loose Ends; and Notes on String Theory" debuts at Pique Gallery, showcasing approximately 1,000 hand-knit newborn hats. Hoehn describes the exhibit as a "meditative process," which helped her handle chronic anxiety and grief.

A historical engagement opportunity is set for Saturday at the Kenton County Public Library's Latonia Branch. The event invites residents to contribute items to a time capsule, which will be opened in 2075. Former news anchor Evan Millward will host, with assistance from NKU Norse Media students who will record video pitches for each submitted item. The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and the time capsule dedication is planned for May at Covington Central Riverfront.

The annual Easter Egg Hunt, organized by Covington Parks and Recreation, will be held at Devou Park's Volpenhein Shelter. Various activities, including games and photos with the Easter Bunny, will be available.

For those unable to attend a previous recycling event, Covington Recycles at Tech Castle is rescheduled for Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon. Attendees can recycle old electronics and donate books in support of Read Ready Covington.

Harlan Hubbard's artwork will be displayed at Behringer-Crawford Museum's reception, alongside a session with author Jessica K. Whitehead. Her biography, "Driftwood: The Life of Harlan Hubbard," will be discussed.

Music enthusiasts can plan their weekend around live performances, including The Missy Werner Band and Kashmir's LED Zeppelin Show.

Additional events such as trivia nights, workshops, and outdoor markets are scheduled throughout the weekend.
