WARWICK, RI — It’s a precipitation-strewn Warwick weekend events lineup with a sunny middle, punctuated by soup-fueled dance, and the Women’s Expo.
Warwick Weekend weather will see temperatures in the 50s and a pretty good chance of rain Friday and Sunday, with Saturday the apparent sunny jewel of the three days, according to the National Weather Service. Here are some events and happenings you can enjoy along the way:
Warwick Weekend Friday:
WCFA Souper Saturday Show at 6:45 p.m. for an early intro to contra dance class, followed by the regular class at 7 p.m. There will be live music. We often switch partners after every dance so there is no need to bring a partner, and no experience is needed to have a fantastic time. The event will be In the gallery at Warwick Center for the Arts, 3259 Post Road, Warwick. There’s on-street parking and additional parking behind the building
