Rubber ducks, art all night, and birthday parties | KDKA Weekend Planner
We have made it to the weekend, and the weather is expected to cooperate mostly, so let's plan a fun couple of days for you!
August Wilson Birthday Celebration
The August Wilson House celebrates its namesake's birthday on Saturday with a block party.
It will happen in the Hill District, where the late, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright was born.
There will be more than 185 vendors, food trucks, live performances, a lip-sync battle, and more.
The family-friendly fun gets started at 11 a.m. and goes until 6 p.m.

Steel City Duck Derby
The Steel City Duck Derby is back at Allegheny Commons Park on Saturday, as well.
Around 10,000 rubber ducks will swim their way to the finish line in Elizabeth Lake.
You can "adopt" a duck to race in the derby, and there will be prizes for the winners.
Along with the derby, there will also be games, music, food, and even face-painting.
It kicks off at 11 a.m. on Saturday morning with the derby set to go at 1 p.m.
