“Vroom! Toys on the Go,” this year’s holiday exhibition at Healdsburg Museum, features toy vehicles collected by the late Steve Castelli and a model train display from Wayne Padd. Continues only through Jan. 19 and definitely worth a visit, Wednesdays through Sundays, 11am to 4pm. 221 Matheson St.
Pizza Week
We’re taking a slice from other area weeklies like the Bohemian and the Pacific Sun, and digging into some deep-dish (or thin-crust) pizza. Through Sunday, Jan. 19, area restaurants will craft specialty pizzas in Marin, Napa and Sonoma counties, which can mean they can use just about any kind of crust at all. See the list of Healdsburg-area pizzerias at northbaypizzaweek.com.
