@cal body 1 no indent:University Circle gets in the spirit of the season at today’s Holiday CircleFest. The 13th annual outing features live music, hands-on activities, and other holiday offerings at more than 20 University Circle museums, galleries, and venues. Best bets: a free performance by Cleveland Orchestra’s Youth Orchestra at the Cleveland Institute of Music, and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History’s blowout, which includes a singing Santa, planetarium shows, and tours of its cool new A T. Rex Named Sue exhibit. Plus, free shuttles take visitors from place to place. The whole fest culminates with the Cleveland Museum of Art’s Winter Lights Lantern Festival, which includes dancers and musicians leading a parade on Wade Oval.
Sun., Dec. 3, 1-5:30 p.m.
