Arlington is buzzing with activities for every fancy this weekend, per the city's latest announcement. Whether you're into live music or fine arts, there are plenty of ways to soak up the culture in The American Dream City, starting with Downtown Arlington's First Thursdays.

Running from 5 to 8 p.m. today, this monthly evening features live tunes, art, and a chance to hang out at local businesses. This is where you can experience the core of Arlington's vibrant community spirit. If relaxation is on the agenda, The Spa at Loews Arlington has a 50-minute massage session primed for couples until February 22nd, complete with a glass of bubbly. Pricing starts at $390 – not a steal, but maybe worth the splurge for those needing some R&R.

Showgoers can drift into the melodies of yesteryear at Arlington Music Hall with a tribute to Bread, the 70s soft rock band, starting later at 7 p.m. And it's the last call at River Legacy Nature Center for the Bug Squad exhibit, closing on February 8th, where superhero insects with talking animatronics make entomology cool for kids and adults alike.

Two distinct exhibitions run through April 27th at the Arlington Museum of Art. The first features "Wicked Threads" from the Broadway musical and film, and the second is "Princess Diana: Accredited Access Exhibition," which boasts large-scale photographs by the late Royal Photographer Anwar Hussein. Other activities include Little Explorers at the Downtown Library, Family Storytime at Southeast Branch Library, and a chance to craft a checkered heart for the 50+ crowd at East Library and Recreation Center.

Craft lovers and romantics can get their creative juices flowing at Art After Dark at the Northeast Branch Library tomorrow, while the Rhythm & Blues Fest that same night will have you toe-tapping to Anthony Hamilton and Marvin Sapp. Theater buffs can head to Theatre Arlington for the energetic musical In The Heights through February 23rd and Texas Live! hosts a special night for service members on February 7th. The weekend also includes a nature-focused presentation by Texas A&M, a GALentine's brunch, a children's author book signing, a chili cook-off, and a Zentangle art class.

Sports fans – not to be forgotten – Texas Live! is hosting Fight Night Live! for UFC 312 viewing and a Big Game Bash on Sunday, February 9th, with doors opening at 11 a.m. to catch all the championship drama on a massive screen. For a more low-key wrap-up to the weekend, there's Sunday brunch at Tierra Verde Golf Club or pottery painting at Catalyst Creative Arts, as the City of Arlington reported.
