5. Even with the 4th of July in the middle of the week, we will still have our two favorite Farmer's Markets happening. On Thursday the Cotati Farmer's Market runs from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and features food, fun, and lots of great vendors along with live music. Rohnert Park does their farmer's market on Friday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. with their own great line-up of events. Don't forget to vote for either market in the national contest to find the best local market by going here for more information.
6. This Friday is the last chance to see the annual French concert to kick off the Bastille Celebration at the Church of the Oaks in Cotati. From 7 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. you can enjoy a spirited performance by Tenor Michael Van Why.
7. This Saturday will be the 40th year that the Kitchen Kut-Ups have performed for our local community! They will perform their classic variety act on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday at 1pm for only $15. If you haven't seen them before then you want to see them this weekend at Spreckels Performing Arts.
8. The 11th Annual Art & Garden Festival is this Sunday in downtown Petaluma. Running from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. there will be over 100 booths featuring all sorts of art and outdoor items. Of course there will be food, wine, and beer along with music and kids stuff. This all takes place in the historic downtown area.
