Thousands of people are expected to head for Tallahassee’s Innovation Park this Saturday. The occasion is the 29th Annual Open House at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory and other nearby scientific facilities.<\/p>\n

The Mag Lab’s Kristin Roberts said the event is always a big hit.<\/p>\n

“We hope to have an amazing turnout as people have the chance to explore the nearly 100 activities, demonstrations and hands-on activities and the chance to explore the world’s largest and highest-powered magnet lab.”<\/p>\n

People can also check out the High Performance Materials Institute and Aero-Propulsion Mechanatronics and Energy lab that are nearby. The open house takes place Saturday between 10 and 3.<\/p>\n

As the population ages, more people are being impacted by Alzheimer’s disease. A day devoted to helping those who care for Alzheimer’s patients will take place in Tallahassee this Saturday. The half-day session is being hosted by the Alzheimer’s Project, which is headed up by John Trombetta.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to start at 8 o’clock at the FSU College of Medicine in the atrium and we’ll go until 1 o’clock. There is no charge for the event, but we do ask that you register because we’ll be providing lunch. We’ll also have 10 or 12 tables of vendors set up to provide services for caregivers in a variety of capacities.”<\/p>\n

The goal of the session is to provide useful information and resources to reduce the stress and struggle of those in a caregiving role.<\/p>\n

Florida State University’s Second Annual Festival of the Creative Arts continues over the weekend. A Saturday morning sing-along will be one of the highlights.<\/p>\n

Festival Director and Music Professor Iain Quinn said the audience will be a critical part of the free concert at Ruby Diamond Concert Hall. The music is based on a work by famous FSU poetry professor David Kirby.<\/p>\n

“David has written this text called ‘Happy Chemicals’ and it’s to be sung by the whole audience together with the university symphony orchestra and choirs and people can just come and participate and it’s a chance for everyone to be part ot the premier.”<\/p>\n

That will happen Saturday morning at 10:30. The festival has several other events, which are free and open to everyone.<\/p>\n

The Tallahassee Historical Society is hosting a Bicentennial Antiquarian Book Fair this weekend as part of the Capital City\u2019s 200th birthday celebration. Literally thousands of historic and valuable volumes will be at the Magnolia Drive Elks Lodge both Saturday and Sunday.<\/p>\n

Event Chair Susan Mick said, in addition to all the book dealers, there will also be oral history sessions given by some of Tallahassee\u2019s most fascinating senior residents. And that\u2019s not all.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have avid collectors of historic memorabilia. One fellow is bringing his Abe Lincoln collection to show us. Another is bringing artifacts from Apalachicola. And we\u2019re having family histories. The list goes on and on.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Fair is open Saturday from 10 until 5 and Sunday from 11 until 4. <\/p>\n
