What To Do: Sunday, March 23

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Let’s take a look at what to do this Sunday.

Celebrate an iconic part of Vermont during what promises to be a very sweet Sunday. Over 90 maple sugar makers and maple partners across the state will open their doors to the public Saturday and Sunday with the chance to learn about the craft of sugar making and to try some maple products for yourself.

A documentary made by a filmmaker with Vermont roots is wrapping up its tour here in the state. The film, “Cresta Alta,” chronicles a journey to Alaska, Iceland, Chile, and Peru to document research expeditions on glaciers. The screening starts at 4 p.m. at Montpelier’s Savoy Theater. Tickets are $20.

Enjoy an afternoon at Burlington’s Main Street Landing for a performance of “Primary Trust.” This play is the winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize in drama, and revolves around Kenneth, an introverted bookstore worker, who is suddenly laid off and must face the world he’s avoided.
