Happy February Columbia! With Valentine’s Day weekend just 2 weeks away, here are a few ideas of things to do with your valentines (partner or friends!). These fun and festive activities will keep you occupied throughout the weekend!
1. The Art Institute of Chicago Free admission to the Art Institute makes for a perfect afternoon date. Take a stroll through the museum and end by making a stop in the museum shop, or across the street at a food truck or café.
2. Adler Planetarium If you’re looking to celebrate a little early, Adler Planetarium offers discounted Wednesdays to Illinois residents (just bring a piece of mail with your address) where you get free museum entry and discounted tickets to any sky show!
3. Valentines Decorating Party Celebrating your friends this Valentine’s Day? Host a card decorating and trading party where you can express your love for your close friends. Feel free to include a rom-com watch party, festive snacks, and lots of pink.
4. Paint + Sip Another at home option you can do with your partner or a group, hold a paint and sip session! Use a photo or video for reference, or try portraiture. Relax and have fun!
5. Movie Night Take a group to see Companion, or take a date to see either of Music Box Theater’s Valentine’s Day screenings; The Princess Bride or True Romance! Paddington in Peru also opens Valentine’s Day weekend, if that feels more your speed
