Lots of outdoor events in Somerville this weekend

Somerville is brimming with cool outdoor things to do this weekend ... provided that Hanna stays away.

Thursday, September 4: The final SomerMovie Fest film is Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious, starting at sundown in Seven Hills Park, behind the Holland St. T entrance in Davis Square.

Friday through Sunday, September 5-7: Somerville Greek Music and Food Festival at Dormition Church, 29 Central Street.

Friday and Saturday postponed to Sunday, September 5 and 6 7: Viva La Vinal Festival at the Community Growing Center, 22 Vinal Avenue, 4-10 pm each day. Lots of live bands, all free.

Friday, September 5: The first East Somerville International Movie Night is a Brazilian film, Deus é Brasileiro. A live Brazilian bossa nova band plays before the movie starts, so come early at 7 pm. 165 Broadway at Cross Street, behind the old fire station.

Saturday, September 6 Postponed to Sunday, September 7: The Rock & Roll Yard Sale takes place in Union Square plaza, from 3 to 7 pm. Live bands are playing here, too.

Saturday, September 6 Postponed to Sunday, September 7: Devil Music Ensemble provide a live accompaniment to a 1929 silent Chinese martial arts film, Red Heroine. Starts at 8 pm in Union Square plaza. Come for the yard sale and stay for the movie.

Saturday and Sunday, September 6-7: The Italian Festival of Saints Cosmas and Damian. OK, this one's actually a few feet across the city line, on Warren Street in East Cambridge. But it includes a huge Sunday afternoon parade down the side streets of both Somerville and Cambridge.
