There’s plenty to do this weekend. Here’s some of what we recommend:
Sat 5/6: The Atlas Obscura Society hosts Obscura Day 2017, a day of being a tourist in your own city. Get a private tour of Chicago’s Leather Archives & Museum plus walking tours exploring the city’s early LGBTQ communities, beautiful downtown mosaics and a history of Chicago’s worst disasters. 10 AM-7 PM
Sun 5/7: Singer-songwriter Laura Marling performs at Metro (3730 N. Clark). Peter Margasak writes, “Over a stuttering groove and a pair of bass lines that fall in and out of sync during opener ‘Soothing,’ she rebuffs a caller with whom she has a troubled past—though there’s generosity even in her dismissal (‘I banish you with love’).” 8 PM
