From birds to Ska to vintage finds — this weekend refuses to pick a lane.

    Sunday

    11 AM–4 PM

    300 Block Northampton St, Easton

    Easton Vintage Market

    Thirty-five-plus curated vintage vendors take over the 300 block of Northampton Street. You’re already downtown and already surrounded by good food — easy to turn into a full Sunday afternoon.

    Friday

    7:30 PM

    Zoellner Arts Center, Bethlehem

    NYC Ska Orchestra

    An 18-piece big band blending jazz big-band arrangements with Jamaican roots music — ska, mento, rock steady, reggae. The musicians have collectively performed with Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Lee Scratch Perry, and the Skatalites. That’s not a tribute; that’s the lineage.

    Birds! Walk and Talk

    A guided birding walk through Easton Cemetery with Lafayette College professors and city conservationists — plus a quick intro to logging sightings on iNaturalist. The Cemetery is one of the better birding spots in the city, and this is a rare chance to explore it with people who actually know what they’re looking at. Free; meet at the 10th Street gates.
