5. Wine Country Safari

You've heard of Lion Country Safari, which is all about spotting miserably hot animals, but this is Wine Country Safari -- an event that involves consuming copious amounts of drinks. You see the correlation. On Saturday from 7 to 9 p.m., the Boca Raton Museum of Art is hosting a benefit for Twin Palms Center for the Disabled with wine, hors d'oeuvres, raffles and silent auction. Catering is by Mississippi Sweets BBQ. Tickets are $25 per person or $45 per couple.

3. Second Saturday Cask Party
