Celebrate America. Duh -- it's Fourth of July weekend. But seriously, Worlds of Fun is having a Celebrate America Festival every Friday and Saturday in July. Since you're probably not working today, you should just go now. As a reward for surviving the Orient Express, there will be fireworks in the evening.

If you want to wait until Saturday to get your Independence Day on, head to the Crossroads. Due to the holiday, some galleries are waiting until next weekend to hold their monthly openings. But some, like the Pi Gallery, are doing the regular First Friday thing.

Watch the skies for bursts of color! Click for info on a bunch of fireworks happenings across the metro.

Before it gets dark, though, you should totally head to the National World War I Museum and let Rin Tin Tin's great great great great (maybe some more greats) grandpuppy lick your face. His appearance is part of a bunch of patriotic activities planned at the museum on Saturday.
