5 Things to Know Today: Friday, November 4

1) Nice Night for a Walk! Come out to the First Friday Art Walk tonight from 6-10 in downtown Gulfport. Dine at a local restaurant, buy early holiday gifts and watch live music and live glass blowing demonstrations at the Industrial Arts Center. See you at the Art Walk!

2) Re-Auction: Come out tonight for the Industrial Arts Center's Great Glass Pumpkin Silent Re-Auction starting at 6 p.m. Because rain (and TV sports) kept auction-goers away last Saturday, the Industrial Arts Center has rescheduled its silent auction of nearly two dozen one-of-a-kind glass pumpkins in the Hot Shop.

3) Perform at the Holiday Hoopla: If you have a great chorus, band or small dramatic act with a holiday theme, perhaps your group would like to participate in the 3rd Annual Gulfport Holiday Hoopla put on by the Gulfport Merchants Association. Check out the announcement to find out how you can get invovled.

4) Plan Ahead: Are you going to the City-Wide Yard Sale this Saturday in Gulfport? Check out the brochure with more than 115 homes registered this year.

5) Friday Forecast: Looks like we'll have a 20 percent chance of rain before 2 p.m. Otherwise, mostly sunny with a high near 70. A north northwest wind between 13 and 17 mph, with gusts as high as 24 mph. Tonight, mostly clear with a low around 57 and a north northwest wind between 11 and 15 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.
