Say event organizers: “Called the “great American romantic” by the New York Times, Edwin McCain has built an enviable career over the past 20 years by balancing his massive pop success with the year-round touring schedule of a tireless troubadour. His hit songs, authentic spirit and surprisingly affable sense of humor keep fans coming back time and time again for nights that feel more like parties with old friends than rock concerts.”

• Davidson Tour De Food Foodie Tour

Saturday, Feb. 17, The Brickhouse Tavern, 209 Delburg Street, Davidson

“Take a tour of Davidson,” say event organizers. “A quaint little town full of history and rich in flavor. We will start our tour at the Old Cotton Mill now known as The Brick House Tavern found at 209 Delburg St. From there we will wind our way through historical Davidson down Main St, stopping at 5-6 different restaurants from upscale dining to the soda shop along the way. We will sample some of the finest culinary delights these establishments have to offer. At one of the stops enjoy a local beer or wine tasting. You will get to meet the owners and chefs for a very personal experience unlike any other. Come see how innovative these independently owned restaurants can turn farm fresh food into the most delectable dishes. Eat - Drink - Walk with us through Davidson.”

• Jewish Film Festival at the Lake

Sunday, Feb. 18, 4 p.m. - 6 p.m., Our Town Cinemas Cafe & Taphouse, Davidson

Say event organizers: “A wonderful interfaith film! Yossi, a charismatic Kosher butcher, loses his job and cannot find work at other Kosher butchers, so he decides to pretend to be Muslim in order to get work at a Halal butcher. A broken leg is a blessing in disguise for a young Jewish boy who is taken away by ambulance just as the Jews of Paris are being rounded up by the French police. The chief physician and senior nurse resort to drastic measures to keep the boy and the other Jewish patients safe. Based on a true story, this tender coming-of-age drama is a testament to the resilience and bravery of youth.”

• Le Sacre

Sunday, Feb. 18, 3 p.m. - 4:30 p.m., Davidson College Music Department, 323 Concord Road, Davidson

A two piano collaboration between Davidson Artist Associate in Piano William Fried and Winthrop University Associate Professor of Music Tomoko Deguchi. This performance will feature Stravinsky’s iconic Rite of Spring arranged for two pianos, as well as music by John Adams and Charlotte area composer Ron Parks.
