Spring break is here, and if you’re looking for fun, family-friendly activities that won't break the bank, this week's Northern Express - sister publication of The Ticker - has you covered!

From free movies and outdoor adventures to creative crafts and hands-on experiences, check out daily events happening from March 21 through April 3 across northern Michigan. This week's issue also has an in-depth preview of the upcoming Traverse City Comedy Fest - taking place April 10-12 in eight venues across Traverse City, with headliners including Marc Maron, Jay Pharoah, Josh Blue, and Natasha Leggero - plus a bird's-eye view of the  Skegemog Raptor Center and a profile on BeeSmooth Café in Manistee, among other features.
