As Emerson said, “Do what we can, summer will have its flies.” He may have been on to something. Now that the midsummer days have arrived, the beach is looking too sandy, the mosquitoes too many, and the skies too sunny — or too cloudy, depending on the day. Summer has started to lose its appeal. Fall now, please!
Until we can greet the fall season and its accompanying reprieves, we highly recommend you soak up the A/C during the day and explore the city during the evening. With an adult playground by Jessy Nite, a video workshop with the TM sisters, and more free events this week, there’s more than enough to keep you out of the house and happy.
Monday
- Color Me Porno Playhouse: Jessy Nite sets up an inimitable adult playground at Villa 221 with Tony G, Tommy Clark and Tony “Bird” Torrellio spinning upstairs in the Skybox.
- Embrace Chaos: Brendan O’Hara brings a brand new blend of fusion to Blue Martini.
Tuesday
- Portrait of a Shipibo Healer: Fulbright grant winner and Cuban-born Miamian Maria Lino returns from the Andres with “Shared Threads.” Her piece, showing at Frost Art Museum, is part of a series of video portraits taken during Lino’s time in Peru.
Wednesday
- Workshop with the TM Sisters: The duo lead a video lecture and interactive workshop at the de la Cruz Collection. Learn the technical stuff like green screens, animation and editing, and help make a collaborative video piece with your fellow students.
- Green it up: Fancy yourself a green thumb? Even if you’re not the best gardener, you can bring some naturalness back into your cooking and your kitchen by checking out this sprouts workshop with Mary Robertson at The Standard.
Thursday
- Bookleggers: Booklovers unite to create a runaway library at Lester’s. Just show up or bring a trade-in and get a free book.
- Live at Churchill’s: 156, Kenny Millions, Single Mothers and a slew of others combine to play a killer show at Churchill’s Pub.
