Juneteenth Vibes concert

The Emancipation Park Conservancy’s virtual Juneteenth celebration concludes with an Instagram live concert featuring longtime Houston DJ Flash Gordon Parks, who will be spinning a mix of tunes curated by the Houston Museum of African American Culture. There’ll be some blues, a bit of jazz, a touch of soul, and, of course, a note of hip-hop (we are Screwston, after all).

June 19. Free. Online. Watch the concert on HMAAC’s Instagram.

We Stand Up Together comedy shows

The saying goes “laughter is the best medicine,” and while a little humor can’t fix everything that’s going on in our world, EaDo comedy club The Secret Group is harnessing that power of hilarity for three benefit shows to raise money for Black Lives Matter. Each show will feature a different lineup of local and nationally-touring comics (they’re keeping the exact lineups under wraps), so you’ll get to see fresh routines if you choose to stick around all night. And since this is a benefit event, all proceeds from the shows, as well as bar sales, are being donated. Be sure to read up on The Secret Group’s safety measures before heading out.

June 19. $20. The Secret Group, 2101 Polk St. More info and tickets at thesecretgrouphtx.com.

They’ll be in driveways and windows and on balconies, front stoops, and sidewalks across the city. According to organizers, about 83 Bayou City artists and organizations plan to participate, including Houston Symphony, Buffalo Bayou Park, the Institute of Contemporary Dance Houston, and the city’s Office of Cultural Affairs. To receive an emailed map with the artists’ locations Saturday morning, RSVP on the drive’s website.
