It’s been a crazy week here at West and Clear HQ. So crazy, in fact, that we’ve decided to open up the weekly “go do this” post to you, our brilliant, attractive, congenial readers.

Here are a couple of things to get you started:

The Fort Worth Astronomical Society is hosting a free stargazing party and telescope observation starting at dusk on Saturday. They’re meeting on the north lawn at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History, 1501 Montgomery St. Call 817-255-9409 for the deets.

Saturday is also the day of competing green events.

The Westside Unitarian Universalist Church is hosting its Green Fest Saturday from 11-5 at its new location, 901 Page St. It’s free, of course.

I’ll be at the Live Green expo in Plano (yeah, I know, “Live Green in Plano” sounds like an oxymoron). It runs from 9-5, and since I don’t see a cost of entry listed on its web page, I assume it’s free. I’m debating riding a combination of my bike, TRE, and DART to get there, but I also have other business that I need to do in the Plano/Frisco/Dallas area, so I may have to resort to the car.

That’s it for me for the weekend! Sunday I’ll be cleaning up from the storm and trying to get ahead on some work.

What are your plans for the weekend? Post them in this thread! If you’d like to have something listed in a future event roundup, send us an e-mail with the word “event” in the subject line so we can pick it out easily.

Open Casting Call For Local Film - “St. Nick”

by Pete Wann

I just got word from local filmmaker Adam Donaghey that he’ll be holding an open casting call for David Lowrey’s new feature “St. Nick.” Adam discusses the casting call on his blog, but you can also read about it on the Texas Film Commission’s website. (I love how Rick Perry manages to get his name on every page; instead of “Texas Governor’s Office,” every page is titled “Texas Governor Rick Perry…” like he doesn’t want you to forget who’s granting you all this blessed information and state sponsored artsy goodness.)

Contact Adam to arrange a meeting and send a resume and head shots, or I suppose you could show up at the Lone Star Film Society offices on Saturday to audition, although the casting call doesn’t list any hours.
