Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
The weekend is finally here, and you've earned your time to kick back and unwind. This weekend, Miami offers up some warm weather-appropriate entertainment, from theater (indoor to keep you cool), to getting drunk at Zoo Miami. Don't forget that Sunday is Mother's Day, so make sure to treat the woman who brought you into the world.
Happy weekend, Miami.

Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism.
