Nosferatu. Submitted
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the silent cinema masterpiece Nosferatu and to honor it, the Eureka Theater is taking the creepiness factor up to 100 with a special screening of the iconic horror fi lm on the big screen paired with a live musical score. At ease, hair on the back of your neck. Nosferatu - A Symphony of Horror features Austin’s “emperors of eclecticism,” The Invincible Czars, performing a live, updated soundtrack to accompany the suspense fest this Sunday, Sept. 18, from 6 to 9 p.m. ($20). This is an early Halloween treat you don’t want to miss. Boston-based fi ddler Hanneke Cassel, winner of the 1997 U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Championship and sought-after performer at Celtic festivals across the globe, brings her special blend of contemporary and traditional music, infused with fl avors of the Isle of Skye and Cape Breton Island and Americana to Arcata Playhouse on Thursday, Sept. 22, from 7 to 8 p.m. ($18, $16). Joining Cassel for this lively, foot-tapping performance are Newfoundland-born guitarist Keith Murphy and fi ddler Jenna Moynihan. Doors are at 6:30 p.m.

Every third weekend in September (except for the last two years), the Arcata Plaza swells with families, revelers, artists, dancers, musicians, crafters, makers and producers for the annual North Country Fair, a two-day celebration of the Fall Equinox, diversity and community. This year, the fair falls on Saturday, Sept. 17, and Sunday, Sept. 18, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and promises all the good stu we know and love — with 170 art and craft vendors, three music and entertainment stages, local food booths, activities for kids and a daily parade at 1 p.m. (Saturday is the Samba Parade and Sunday is the All-Species Parade). Come out and celebrate being “Together Again,” this year’s theme.
Heads up, Humboldt: While the county’s masking mandate has been lifted, Public Health is still strongly recommending masking indoors in public, social distancing and “avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.” COVID-19 is still with us, so be sure to check the protocols at event venues.
