Greater Dayton Lebanese Festival
Greater Dayton Lebanese Festival
The Greater Dayton Lebanese Festival is this weekend.

If you are a stamp collector then the AIRPEX 2019 have more than 15 stamp dealers from across the country with varied philatelic offerings and supplies. Novice, youth and avid stamp collectors are welcome to stop by to talk and shop with stamp dealers and club members. It’s at the IBEW Union Hall, on Poe Ave, today and Saturday.

The Greater Dayton Lebanese Festival features Middle Eastern dancing, entertainment, cultural displays, craft booths, amusement rides and, of course, authentic hand-made Lebanese food. It's at Saint Ignatius Maronite Catholic Church on Springboro Pike, this evening, Saturday and Sunday.

If you want to hear many, different bands and some solo artists then head to Dayton Porchfest. Stroll the streets of beautiful St. Anne’s Hill and check out a whole lot of folk, blues, country, bluegrass, indie, salsa, jazz, rock & roll and it's pet-friendly. It’s  Saturday, 1:30 to 7pm. And if you want some accordion music and chat with me then find 148 South Dutoit at 2pm.

So, you want to learn how to sew? Enjoy personal instruction as you learn sewing and mending basics. All supplies included. Take home samples, techniques, and inspiration. All ages welcome at Oakwood Historical Society, Sunday, 1:30 to 3:30pm.

The 2018 sci-fi action adventure film Bumblebee is at the Air Force Museum Theatre Sunday at 4pm.
