4/7: Three for free

Posted by Courtney Hollands April 7, 2008 10:00 AM

Pinching pennies? Chic but cheap? We understand. Here are three free events this week for your going out pleasure.

Monday, April 7

- Mary Galli art opening @ ZuZu: The Somerville artist's spray painted pieces are influenced by street art and graffiti (below, a so-hip-it-hurts painting from Galli). She also uses markers in her work — thinking about Crayolas brings you back to third grade, doesn't it? DJ Brian Coleman spins at tonight's reception. 10 p.m.-1 a.m.

Tuesday, April 8

- Free cones @ J.P. Licks: Oh, Red Sox mania. It's coming Tuesday, ready or not. Even if you aren't a diehard baseball fan, you can certainly get on board with free ice cream at JP Licks' locations around the city. Get in the spirit with Green Monster Tea, Rice DICE Kream, One Sweet World Series, and Manny's Mocha Chip. What, no flavor for our crush Mike Lowell? 11 a.m.

Thursday, April 10

- "The Truth About Cancer" screening: Emmy-winning director Linda Garmon explores and questions her husband's death from cancer in this cathartic documentary. The 90-minute film will premiere on PBS on April 16, but you can stop by the Coolidge Corner Theatre for a sneak preview and Q&A with Garmon Thursday. 7 p.m.
