1. Spend time on the terrace

You don’t have to go far to enjoy free outdoor concerts in Chicago, and Tuesdays on the Terrace is a treat from MCA. Tonight, Maggie Brown will be performing while guests lounge in the shade with a cool drink. (Museum of Contemporary Art, 220 E Chicago Ave, 5:30pm. Free)

2. See an outdoor movie

It isn’t summer unless you've been to a movie in the park. Grab your favorite candy and get ready for a double feature of Moonstruck and Silence of the Lambs at the Pritzker Pavilion. (Millennium Park, 55 N Michigan Ave, 6:30pm. Free)

3. Explore an artist’s memory

When you wander through the rooms in Carlos Rolón/Dzine: I Tell You This Sincerely… you’ll be walking through some of the artist's most treasured memories from his Puerto Rican heritage. Admire a hanging Caribbean garden, a boxing trophy den and a cherished community street cart. (Chicago Cultural Center, 78 E Washington St, 10am. Free)
