It’s Thursday, and you’ve got no idea what you’ll do for the weekend.

Cleveland Heights Patch is coming to the rescue. We’ve got the best bets for your done-with-work-outta-here time. Check out our picks for the activities to hit and new places to explore, and don't forget to browse our events calendar. 

 1.    

Where/When: Congregation Bethaynu, 27900 Gates Mills Blvd., Pepper Pike; today 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Friday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Pricing: Well, that depends on what you find.

 2.    

Where/When: ; Friday, 7 to 9 p.m.

Pricing: $5

 3.     

Where/When: Pete’s Tavern; 1318 Warrensville Center Road,
Cleveland; Saturday, 8 p.m.

Why Go:  Hear the garage-punk-rock band that named itself after a spaceship.

Pricing: Free

 4.     JERRY SPRINGER: THE OPERA

Where/When: Beck Center, 17801 Detroit Avenue, Lakewood; Saturday, 8 p.m.

Why Go: It’s an opera about Jerry Springer. But it’s not for the kiddies: it’s pretty notorious for its profanity.

Pricing: $17 to $28

5. 

Where/When: ; Friday, 8 p.m.

Why Go: These bands play more than guitar, bass and drums. Revolver's members play cello and piano. The Ridges, an indie folk group named after the shuttered, legendary mental health hospital in Athens, OH, is comprised of three musicians who play guitar, cello, ukulele, harmonica and the glockenspiel, and they feature guest performers who play other instruments.

Pricing: $8
