1) The Palisades Center Barnes & Noble in West Nyack will offer a Lego Master Builder Academy at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. Children ages eight and up can learn about sideways building while building a Lego robot. Space is limited, so pre-registration is recommended. For more information, click here.

2) Andean Brewing Company will celebrate its recent opening in Blauvelt with a beer tasting event from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday.
