The staff is genuinely welcoming, the <em>Bar Pecan&rsquo;s</em> beer, wine, and cocktail wall adds an element of fun, and the food is the real showstopper, locally sourced, nutrient-dense, and deeply satisfying. The <em>Crazy Good Lollies</em> drum sticks (tamarind BBQ glazed) are an amazing app. The <em>DemKota Ranch</em> Filet is our favorite main, and the tiny mason jar desserts are reason enough to save room, whether you enjoy them there or take them home. Everything is served with what they call &ldquo;southern spirit&rdquo;, kindness, grace, and the sense that they really want you to leave feeling good. <strong>www.pecancraftkitchen.com</strong><br /><br /><br /><em><font size="5">Art, Music &amp; Community</font></em><br />Art lovers can kick off the month with <strong>First Friday Art Walk</strong> in historic St. Augustine on February 6, where galleries like the <strong>St. Augustine Art Association </strong>and <strong>Butterfield Garage</strong> open their doors with refreshments, new exhibits, and vibrant downtown energy.<br /><br /><br /><em><font size="5">A Season of Opera</font></em><br />Looking forward to <strong>The First Coast Opera&rsquo;s 2026 season </strong>that will transport local audiences to international stages with classic 19th-century masterpieces like Bizet&rsquo;s Carmen and Gilbert and Sullivan&rsquo;s The Mikado. The season kicks off with Fanfare!, a festive launch and fundraiser in October that includes dinner and musical previews celebrating the year ahead. www.firstcoastopera.com/season<br /><br /><br /><em><font size="5">Midweek Moves &amp; Weekend Fun at Arnold&rsquo;s Lounge</font></em><br />A friend recently tipped us off to one of the most unexpectedly fun midweek traditions around: line dancing every Wednesday night at <strong>Arnold&rsquo;s Lounge </strong>on Ponce de Leon Boulevard. It&rsquo;s casual, high-energy, and the kind of place where everyone, from first-timers to regulars, ends up on the floor by the end of the night.<br />And the fun doesn&rsquo;t stop there. Arnold&rsquo;s keeps the calendar lively all week long, with live bands every Saturday night, karaoke on Mondays and Thursdays, Steak Night specials on Thursdays, and Ladies&rsquo; Night on Fridays. It&rsquo;s easygoing, welcoming, and exactly the kind of spot where a simple night out turns into a favorite local ritual. www.arnoldslounge.com/event<br /><br /><br /><em><font size="5">Music Love: Fort Mose Jazz &amp; Blues</font></em><br />One of the things we love most about February in our area is the return of <strong>Fort Mose Jazz &amp; Blues Series,</strong> which celebrates its fifth year from February 6&ndash;15, 2026, at Fort Mose Historic State Park. Set on ground rich with history and meaning, the series brings together world-class music, community, and culture. It&rsquo;s more than a concert series, it&rsquo;s an experience that honors Fort Mose&rsquo;s legacy as the first legally sanctioned free African settlement in what is now the United States, while filling the air with some of the best sounds in jazz and blues today.<br />This year&rsquo;s lineup is one we&rsquo;re genuinely excited about, featuring Ledisi, Gary Clark Jr., Robert Cray Band, Ruthie Foster, Don Was and the Pan-Detroit Ensemble, and Samara Joy. Tickets are on sale now, with proceeds continuing to support the Fort Mose Historical Society and the preservation of this remarkable site. discoverfortmose.com<br /><br /><br /><em><font size="5">More Fun on the Calendar</font></em><br />February is also full of ways to get outside and connect. Join in on local paddles, cleanup days, and nature celebrations throughout the month organized around the region, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and families alike.<br />We&rsquo;re already looking forward to <strong>The Players Championship in March,</strong> when pros converge for one of golf&rsquo;s most exciting stops, and the community comes <span>alive with </span></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[January 2026]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.stjohnsmag.com/calendar/january-2026]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.stjohnsmag.com/calendar/january-2026#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Thu, 01 Jan 2026 14:37:06 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.stjohnsmag.com/calendar/january-2026</guid><description><![CDATA[NetworkingSt. Johns Moms Vision Board&amp; Networking ExperienceJanuary 8 | 11:00 AM&ndash;2:00 PMKick off 2026 with intention at this hands-on vision board and networking event designed to help women clarify their personal and professional goals.

This year, we&rsquo;re once again shining a spotlight on local artists&mdash;those whose creativity, vision, and dedication enrich our neighborhoods and inspire us all.<br /><span></span><br /><br /><span></span>We&rsquo;re looking to profile a diverse range of artists, from traditional painters and sculptors to photographers, mixed-media innovators, and even makers and crafters. Whether you&rsquo;re established in your craft or just beginning to share your work, we want to hear your story. Art has the power to connect us, spark conversation, and bring beauty to our everyday lives, and we believe our community is stronger when we lift up those who create.<br /><span></span><br /><br /><span></span><span>If you are an artist&mdash;or if you know someone whose creativity deserves to be highlighted</span><strong>&mdash;</strong>we invite you to nominate yourself or recommend a local artist for consideration. This is an opportunity not only to showcase your work but also to share the passion and purpose behind it with thousands of readers across Northern St. Johns. Together, let&rsquo;s celebrate the artists who remind us of the importance of imagination, expression, and beauty in our lives. Submissions and recommendations are open now through September 11th &mdash;we can&rsquo;t wait to see the talent our October issue will bring to light.
