Parks both large and small across Upper Manhattan are holding Easter egg hunts this holiday weekend. Expect a variety of activities at each, from meeting the Easter Bunny at the Jackie Robinson Recreation Center to hunting for real hard-boiled eggs– as opposed to the plastic kind–at the Dorothy K. McGowan Memorial Garden. (A reader writes in that there's also an Easter egg hunt at the Church of the Intercession on Saturday at noon.)

Once the pastel sweetness of the weekend is over, head to this after-hours cabaret-style event at Manhattanville Coffee where local singer/musician Shayna Bass will start up the house band and lead a lineup of six different comedians and musicians. Beer, wine and food will be available.
