Weekly Events  / 

We rounded up the best things to do around Bergen County and from home on our weekend PLAYlist!

Sponsored Post: It has been said that the arts will save us. This seems particularly true when options for summer camps and activities are limited this summer. Fortunately, the Performing Arts School at bergenPAC has been operating virtually since March. They will be offering ALL NEW Virtual Summer Programs for students of all ages. So if your child has been asking to try out the performing arts, there’s no better time than this summer. Choose from Early Childhood Music, Musical Theater, Dance Intensives and even perform in a virtual musical! Register today! Bergen Mama readers who pay in full on or before June 1 will receive a 10% early bird discount.  Please use code BM20! For more information, contact the Performing Arts School at bergenPAC at 201.482.8194 or email education@bergenpac.org.
