Must Putt
Smash Putt
(2/3-2/5, times and prices vary) We’re just “putt”ing this out there: Smash Putt is a lot of fun and always sells out fast. Right now, tickets are still available to this “Miniature Golf Apocalypse” event that, in addition to select weekends through April, is promised to be the last-ever “opportunity to experience this iconic Seattle-grown grown-up playground.” The “not-your-Grandma’s” mini golf course includes “devious devices with wicked robotic brains engineered by industrial-artists and hackers,” “vengeful robots,” “a menacing city-scape,” “dastardly lasers,” and “destructive games which put every sense to the test.” Think Mad Max meets the mini putting green and you get the idea. smashputt.com

Must Hear
All of Us Belong Concerts
(2/2, 2/4, times vary) Part of the Symphony’s “Simple Gifts” initiative, these multi-sensory concerts led by music director Ludovic Morlot incorporate the voices of those experiencing homelessness through poetry, visual art and music from Charles Ives’ New England Holidays. Participants from three community nonprofit groups reimagined Ives’ masterwork and developed “artistic responses or reinterpretations of these holidays” with regard to their personal experiences. These spoken word and visual narratives will be presented in the live performance of the score that also features pianist Emanuel Ax performing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5. seattlesymphony.org
