Day: 2 June 2018

It's the weekend and the sun has still got its jaunty little hat on. So far, so good. But if you're stuck for ideas of what to do with yourself, have a look at our weekend plans for inspiration. Veg out You don't have to be a vegan to enjoy the food and there are some amazing plant-based dishes out there. Discover them for yourself at the huge two-day Vegan Summer Fest on The Level where you'll find over 100 stalls, 10 different world food caterers, as well as yoga sessions, live music and cookery demos. Saturday 2nd June - Sunday 3rd June 2018, 11.00am - 7.00pm on Saturday, 11.00am - 5.00pm on Sunday; £5 or £8 for both days The Level, Lewes Road, Brighton BN2 3FX Vegan Summer Festival Weird science Discover the joys of science for free as 12 women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) bring their expertise to the seafront. Expect to be enlightened with fascinating talks on topics as varied as 'how many ways can you make a star explode' to 'how to regenerate your body'. Saturday 2nd June, 11.00am - 2.00pm; free Brighton seafront, just west of the i360 soapboxscience.org We're just ordinary people Founded by artists Jolie Booth and Lucy Malone after a successful Kickstarter campaign, the Museum of Ordinary People is a fascinating pop-up that chronicles the "magic and mundanity" of everyday life, with exhibits created by and about ordinary members of the public. There's also an adults' workshop on diary writing and an evening discussion where you can find out more about MOOP and the need for museums to showcase counter-culture. Until 3rd June, 11.00am - 6.00pm; free/donation (but workshops ticketed) The Spire, Eastern Road, Brighton BN2 5JN museumofordinarypeople.com Down to a fine art Back for the fourth year, the Art Yard Sale is a fantastic opportunity to snap up some original limited-edition contemporary art at surprisingly affordable prices directly from the creators themselves. The exhibiting artists work across a wide range of areas, from street art and sculpture to mixed media and illustration, and with workshops and live music, too, there's something for all tastes and pockets. Get ahead of the crowds by exchanging your cash for event organiser ArtRepublic's 'funny money' – the only accepted currency – from 9.00am at the ArtRepublic gallery on Bond Street. Sunday 3rd June, 11.00am - 5.00pm; free Jubilee Square (outside Jubilee Library), Brighton BN1 1GE artyardsale.co.uk
