Crafty Nerds! Your time has come back! Kick off the handmade sweater-wearing season at the Chester Craft Show ($3 admission; check the website for a discount). You may also want to grab your Farm Nerd friends for the 17th Annual Sheep & Fiber Festival at the Hunterdon County Fairgrounds.
Movie Nerds welcome back the NJ International Film Festival at Rutgers with its Fall season. This weekend, free food!
Food, Festival and Multicultural Nerds never miss a good street fair, and the Hoboken Italian Festival puts the other street fairs to shame.... though the Brazilian Day Festival at Independence Park in Newark may give her a run for her money.
Music Nerds should bob their heads all the way to the Somerville Jazz Festival (FREE) on Sunday.
Lastly, some heads-ups for future nerdiness that may sell out quickly:
Sept. 15: The Somerset Patriots honor Joe Torre for his charitable work; Torre will greet fans and accept an award at the game.
Oct. 22: David Johansen and and Garland Jeffreys At the Tabernacle in Mount Tabor.
