March is winding down and this weekend offers lots of family fun in Westchester. Celebrate the last weekend in March with a day of education and fun at the Annual 100.7 WHUD Kids Fair, which we mentioned in our March Go List. Families can enjoy healthy activities, entertainment, games, sports and more. The Voracious Reader in Larchmont is celebrating its 7th Birthday and you can join the celebration with a day of book signings, sales, story times and birthday cake.

Celebrate the wonderful tapestry of peoples, languages and cultures that weave the community together at Global Village Day at Byram Hills High School or check out the Annual Lower Hudson Valley Engineering EXPO at White Plains High School. 

Meet Rosemary Wells of Max and Ruby fame at the Katonah Museum of Art. Learn about her artistic process, listen to a Max and Ruby story and participate in a fun family book-making project. Rosemary will have prints and signed books for sale.
