This weekend's forecast calls for partly cloudy skies on Friday and Saturday and a toasty 84 degrees to finish the weekend. The Hub wants you to enjoy the springtime weather and some of these events happening on campus.
ARTS + CULTURE
Octopodes spring concert
Friday, 8 p.m. | Bloomberg Center
Listen to the Octopodes' seniors sing their swan songs and enjoy a cappella covers of Ariana Grande, The Chainsmokers, Sara Bareilles, and more. There will be a guest performance by the award-winning UMBC Mama's Boys.
Music Under the Stars
Friday, 8 p.m. | The Beach
Support the talented DJs, entertainers, and musicians here at JHU, all while under the night sky. This casual concert is hosted by Hopkins United for Music and will include free food, face painting, and more.
Temps d' Afrique: The Beautiful Struggle
Saturday, 7 p.m. | Shriver Hall

A GOOD CAUSE
Project downtown with the United Muslim Relief
Saturday, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. | Charles Commons

ATHLETICS
Men's tennis: Haverford at Johns Hopkins

GOOD OL' FUN
