Since many museums, zoos, performing arts centers, bookstores, and comedy clubs are still closed for in-person events, many of us are craving a little culture. Thankfully, you can still visit the zoo, explore a new museum, take in a theatrical performance, attend an author talk, or catch an open mic at a comedy club; all from the comfort of home. Courtesy of Eventbrite, here are just some of the many online culture, comedy, and fine arts events in November, as picked by Eventbrite’s experts and edited by us to shorten the list down to the freebies and lower cost events:
