For a fashion flashback: Whether you were an '80s kid or just appreciate the looks of the decade, curator of the Robert and Penny Fox Historic Costume Collection at Drexel University's Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design, Clare Sauro, will show '80s fashion trends from the collection at the URBN Center (3501 Market St.) from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. today.

For a marathon jam: Over the course of 12 hours, 20 local bands will perform at World Café Live (3025 Walnut St.) in support of the Philly chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The Winter Doldrums Festival begins at noon and features performers like The Rent-A-Cops, Sparkle Pony, Paige Allbritton and more.

For a pairing: While you're shopping in Downtown Haddonfield (along Kings Highway, Haddonfield, N.J.), select boutiques and restaurants will have local winery representatives offering samples and bottle sales from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. today.

For an opening reception: The Bazemore Gallery (4339 Main St., Manayunk) is holding a reception for their first show of 2015, "Spiritual Transition," thought provoking paintings from French-born artist Chantal Westby. She'll be in appearance at the 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. soiree to discuss the abstract work.

For free tunes: Originally slated to open for Minnie Driver at the Sellersville Theater (Main St. and Temple Ave., Sellersville, Pa.), singer-songwriter Jesse Ruben is now headlining the show, now free. Doors open at 7:30 p.m.
