The Ladies of Simone bring Nina Simone to Arts Garage

Sarah Gracel and Deana Butler-Rahming step into Nina Simone’s songbook for an evening at Arts Garage. Their program reaches across her career, from I Loves You Porgy and The Look of Love to My Baby Just Cares for Me, To Be Young, Gifted and Black, and Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood.

It is a tribute built around the voice and the songs, not a history lecture – expect the music to do most of the talking.

Art on the Square returns to Old School Square

Stick around on Sunday afternoon: at 3 p.m., the crowd gathers to celebrate the winners of that weekend painting exhibition.

Good to know: Admission is free, both to the show and to the museum, according to the organizer listing.

First Friday Art Walk takes over downtown Delray Beach

Friday night in downtown Delray is built for wandering. Galleries and cultural spaces open their doors for the monthly art walk, so you can drift from one exhibition to the next, talk with the people behind the work, and catch live entertainment as you go.

At Old School Square, the Cornell Art Museum is showing four exhibitions this month. The subjects range from the Everglades to nature-inspired painting, plus a printmaking retrospective. Arts Garage is also showing two exhibitions to kick off the evening.

Good to know: Times and details can change, so check the organizer listing before you go.
