David Sedaris At KeyBank State Theater
Delivering sharp, witty essays and short stories on the human condition, David Sedaris is one of America’s premier humorists and masters of satire.

Networking Is Dead
Jerry Garcia may not have spent much time in a conference room, but plenty of professionals trade tie-dye for a tie when they're not hanging out on Shakedown Street. This Friday’s Shake Your Bones networking event at Music Box Supper Club is the perfect place to meet these fellow deadheads who are looking for kindred spirits navigating the long, strange trip of corporate Cleveland. The Garcia Project, which performs complete Jerry Garcia Band shows with era-specific equipment and instruments, provides the soundtrack as you network and enter Grateful Dead-related raffles. $27 (free membership), Oct. 18, 7-11 p.m., Music Box, 1148 Main Ave., Cleveland, cleveland.eventful.com
Fleet Avenue Kielbasa Cookout
When you want a good kielbasa, you know where to go. Slavic Village hosts its annual Kielbasa Cookout this weekend. Cook your own Polish, Slovenian or Hungarian kielbasa as you sip a Slavic beer and enjoy local Slavic Village rock ‘n’ roll and polka bands, or leave the cooking to the professionals. Free, Oct. 19, 5-10 p.m., 5708 Fleet Ave., Cleveland, facebook.com
Run for the Rescue at Pinecrest
We’ll do anything for the pups — even go for run. Pinecrest hosts the inaugural Run for the Rescue, a 5K supporting Cleveland Animal Protective League. After you breeze through the race, take a breather at the APL’s adoption mobile unit to meet your new furrever friend. $20-25, Oct. 19, 9-10 a.m., Pinecrest, 200 Park Ave., Orange, bit.ly/runfortherescue
Bootanical Bash
Venture into the haunted Bootanical Garden with your little ghosts, witches and ghouls. Witness the enchanting lights of the Hershey Children’s garden or trick-or-treat while the night is young. Dance parties and games can be found if you’re willing to walk through the mysterious gardens in search. Ghouls and kids alike are welcome at all ages (alive or undead). Get your tickets while they’re hot because this event sells out faster than a skeptic on a ghost hunt. $10-18, Reservations Required, Oct. 18-19, 5:30-8:30 p.m., 216-721-1600 (x100), Cleveland Botanical Garden, 11030 East Blvd., Cleveland, cbgarden.org
