If it's clear Saturday evening, take a look in the western sky about 7:30 p.m.
or so. The Pleiades will be about a half-degree below the crescent moon, very
similar to how they appeared one year earlier:

Binoculars will provide the best view. For the eastern United States, it
will actually be an occultation.
