The beginning of this week was once again swallowed up by adverse weather conditions so this edition of the Going-Out Guide will only cover weekend events. More snow is expected, but hopefully it won’t prevent you from attending some of the great events our community has to offer.

You can kick-off the weekend with some early music from The Newberry Consort. The Chicago-based ensemble will perform at the First Church in Cambridge at 8 pm tonight and, according to the Boston Early Music Festival (BEMF), the performance features “selections from the Cantigas de Santa Maria with singers from Boston’s own Exsultemus.” Click here to learn more or to purchase tickets.

If you’re interested in more contemporary music, you can enjoy a free night of Americana, folk, and pop at the Center for Arts at the Armory. Local singer-songwriter, Andy Newton, will perform tunes from his debut record, A Banner Day, tonight from 9 pm to 10 pm. The Armory offers more free music on Saturday morning from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm with a wide repertoire of jazz, great American Songbook, and more by Rick Schilling (piano) and Rick Silberg (vocals).

You can round off your weekend with some educational down time at the Peabody Museum where The Arts of War: Artistry in Weapons Across Cultures exhibit “presents the varied beauty and craftsmanship of war objects drawn from cultures around the world,” and offers more than 150 examples of weapons that are also works of art.
