On blog/event intermingling:

I indicated in my initial post that the event and blog posts are properly intermingled when using the Twenty Twelve theme, on the same page (/theblog). Switching back to Canvas (without activating any other plugins) removes events from blog display, so it’s pretty clear that it’s a Canvas conflict and not another plugin causing the issue.

Woo sent me a different .css snippet that fixed the problem (I don’t love it because it’s hard-coded to the menu item in question), but it works:
.events-archive #menu-item-1487 a {background: none !important; color: #666 !important;}

Reverting to default theme with no plugins removes by ability to assign widgets by page. That ability is provided in my site by the WooSidebars plugin. Because the events calendar page is not a ‘page’, and there’s no template that WooSidebars can operate on, I cannot assign the set of widgets that I want to use for the page.

I added the code above. No change to behavior. (both ‘events’ and ‘blog’ are highlighted when /events is rendered).

Thanks for the response.
On issue #1, I’ll check out Themer’s Guide (thanks for the link), and open a new post if I’m still stuck (which I think I might be). The problem that I’m trying to solve is that I need a hook to use a set of sidebar widgets that I’ve defined and that work great on other pages, but I have no idea how to create that hook. I don’t want to replicate the widgets and have to worry about maintaining multiple copies of the same code.

On issue #2, I have no idea how to proceed on this. I’ll open a new thread on it.

On issue #3, I added the snippet you referenced to my functions.php – this had no effect.
