1. This is the first ever Olympia Summer Brew Fest to benefit the Thurston County Chamber Foundation Small Business Development (Incubator) Program, which helps strengthen the local economy and create successful small businesses. Now you can help out your community (maybe even your country) by enjoying over 60 different beers from 30+ hand-picked breweries. In addition, it is past time that the capital city had a brew fest to call its own. Beer has always been an important part of Olympia's heritage, so come out and join the celebration! 12 - 10 p.m., $30, $25/military, $5/designated driver, Port Plaza, Olympia, www.olybrewfest.com.

2. Click! Cable TV partners with the Grand Cinema to present Free Family Films every 3rd Saturday of each month. Movies begin at 10:00am. Limited to the first 100 in attendance. Children under age 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Today's showing is Alvin and the Chipmunks. 606 South Fawcett Avenue, Tacoma, 253.593.4474.

3. Get down to some improvised grooves played by great musicians while you paint, eat, dance, play and create. Then strike up a conversation in the beer garden, if you're of age (21+). The feel of the night is all about tasting the fruit of collaboration. What would it feel like to collaborate with your neighbors for grassroots art, tackling neighborhood challenges and generally helping to make the world a better place, one neighborhood at a time? 3 - 10 p.m., Opera Alley, Tacoma.
