A past weekend. Written after the fact from what local sources listed and the weather that actually happened.
Phoenix stayed bone dry and baking hot both days, with Saturday topping out around 100 and nights that barely cooled. The weekend leaned indoors: youth writing workshops, drawing at the arts center and a cafe scavenger hunt.

The Read, Write LEAD! pop up workshop returned to Grassrootz Bookstore & Juice Bar on Sunday morning. Spots were booked ahead, and the bookstore setting kept young readers indoors.
DRAWING with M.A.R.C.U.S. Art was on again Sunday afternoon at the Phoenix Center for the Arts, with sketching indoors while the sun did its worst outside.
