This Weekend in Atherton: Open Houses & Local Picks
A little less searching, a little more weekend. Start with Atherton home tours, explore three nearby events, and catch the town update that could change your plans.
Checked / All times Pacific / Planned refresh: Thursdays
These are selected published showings, not a complete inventory. Prices are asking prices checked on the date shown, not a current market valuation. Schedules can change; confirm directly before visiting.
Friday, September 11, 4-6 PM; Saturday-Sunday, September 12-13, 1-4 PM each day
28 Holbrook Lane
Atherton, CA 94027
$5,888,000 5 bedrooms / 4 full and 1 half bathrooms / 3,765 sq ft
Choose a Friday twilight visit or a Saturday/Sunday afternoon showing. The published schedule identifies public open houses, separate from its private showing-request form. Confirm with the listing agent before leaving; this is one selected property, not a complete inventory.
This edition's nearby picks are in Menlo Park. Check organizer pages for registration, cancellations and last-minute changes. Any verification limits are noted on each card.
Saturday, September 12, 1-2 PM
Music with Gamelan Sekar Swarasanti
Belle Haven Library, 100 Terminal Avenue, Menlo Park
Hear an Indonesian gamelan performance by a Santa Cruz County ensemble. The library organizer lists this as a free event. Check its event page for RSVP options and any last-minute changes.
Belle Haven Library Makerspace, 100 Terminal Avenue, Menlo Park
An afternoon craft session listed for families, children, teens and adults. The city's calendar confirms the date, time and venue; registration requirements and remaining spaces were not verified. Check with the library before attending.
Sunday, September 13, 9 AM-1 PM (published weekly schedule)
Menlo Park Farmers Market
Chestnut Street at Crane Street, downtown Menlo Park
The county lists this market year-round on Sundays, 9 AM-1 PM. This pick follows that published recurring schedule, not a date-specific cancellation guarantee. Browse seasonal produce and vendors; confirm operating updates before visiting.
The town calendar lists Mayor Stacy Holland's office hours in the Administrative Conference Room at Town Hall, 80 Fair Oaks Lane. Appointments are not required. Bring a town question and confirm the calendar before heading over; this is a Monday look-ahead, after the weekend.
How we choose: date-specific public showings, organizer or community calendars, and town notices. We check sources before changing the edition date. Ended events stay labeled as past picks.
