A CURATED CALENDAR FOR THE CURIOUS SLC EXPLORER
See full event listings at The Blocks Arts District
Cliff Cash was raised on the far right end of the southern, conservative, evangelical spectrum. Now, he’s the antithesis: a liberal fella who hilariously upends his upbringing with jokes about greed, war, racism and homophobia. Wiseguys, 7pm.
We could discuss how Dogstar once opened for David Bowie, or announce the accolades the band has accumulated. But, at the end of the day, what sells this band is two words: Keanu Reeves. That’s right, the Hollywood rockstar and bassist of this rock band is at The Complex tonight!
TLC reality star Theresa Caputo talks to the spirits at Abravanel Hall. The Long Island Medium will look into your soul to find the lost souls you’ve been wanting to reconnect with. Step right up and get your ticket today, just $57.75. One show only!
We want to be friends with Frankie Quiñones. His honesty about family relationships, childhood, and frank discussion of therapy will have you cry- laughing at his monologue at Wiseguys, multiple shows.
ALSO FRIDAY
Sidewalks become canvases as the Utah Chalk Art Festival returns to The Gateway. Twenty-two artists from Utah and beyond will transform Rio Grande Street into a gallery of large-scale chalk murals (some as large as 64 square feet). Kids' imaginations will run wild! 10-5, free.
Check out the free, bilingual outdoor pop-up concert celebrating rising local Latine voices, Voces En Bloom. Hosted at McCarthey Plaza at Eccles Theater, the event features a lineup of local bands and DJs, a curated mini art market honoring Latine culture, and local craft beers. 7pm.
