SUMMARY:Summer Species: Invasive Plant Eradication Unit Pop-Up
DESCRIPTION:Join us on the second Saturday of the month from May through August from 9 – 11am for the Invasive Plant Eradication Unit will pop-up! \nArtist Mark Dion created the Invasive Plant Eradication Unit in 2011 as an interactive artwork responding to the one of Buffalo Bayou’s key challenges: the proliferation of non-native species. For Summer Species\, the Invasive Plant Eradication Unit will pop-up at The Water Works in Buffalo Bayou Park to share information on common invasive species in our area\, the importance of native species\, and what we can do to sustain them. \nVisitors will be able to make native seed “bombs” to help spread native species at home or in the park! \nIn addition\, visitors can join Lualo Studio and Buffalo Bayou Partnership for a hands-on flower pounding workshop using native Texas plants to create eco-printed notecards. As we make art together\, we’ll share stories about land\, migration\, and memory—honoring those who came before us and those who continue to grow roots here. Come connect\, reflect\, and create with community. \n  \nLEARN MORE

SUMMARY:Underground Sounds: Sarah Grace Graves

Hirayama\, who moved to Rome from Japan after World War II\, had a remarkable career spanning opera\, traditional Japanese music\, Roman free improvisation\, and Gregorian chant\, embodying an extraordinary vocal and stylistic range.

SUMMARY:Underground Sounds: Sarah Grace Graves
DESCRIPTION:Tickets are now SOLD OUT for this Underground Sounds performance. An in-person\, first-come\, first-served waiting list will begin exactly 30 minutes prior to each performance time. \nJoin us for Underground Sounds\, a unique music series in the Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern! \nThis year\, the series features national and international artists presenting compositions inspired by the vast\, unique architecture of the Cistern and arranged especially for its extraordinary natural acoustics. \n  \nAbout This Program\n \nThree Names is an adaptation of Vespro\, a program Graves presented in Rome in July 2023 atop the Palatine Hill\, now reimagined for the cavernous Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern. The work was inspired by her 2022 performance for the Scelsi Foundation\, honoring soprano Michiko Hirayama\, a longtime collaborator of experimental composer Giacinto Scelsi. Hirayama\, who moved to Rome from Japan after World War II\, had a remarkable career spanning opera\, traditional Japanese music\, Roman free improvisation\, and Gregorian chant\, embodying an extraordinary vocal and stylistic range. This adaptation draws from Hirayama’s fascination with chant and Graves’s personal connections to spirituality and experimental music\, exploring vastness\, interiority\, and harmony between past and future selves. \n  \nCost: $25 \nPerformance Times: \n\nJune 19 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 20 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 21 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\nJune 22 at 6pm and 7:30pm SOLD OUT\n\nEach performance is 45 minutes. \n  \nAbout the Artist\nSarah Grace Graves is a composer and vocal performer working at the intersection between ritual and recital. From 2020-2022 she studied voice with Nicholas Isherwood while conducting an artistic residency in Paris at the Fondation des États-Unis on interdisciplinary collaboration with voice. Recent projects include Breath Atlas\, a musical archipelago of papyrus fragments by Sappho\, and Love Letter\, a reworking of Monteverdi’s Lettera Amorosa inspired by an unattributed recording from the Scelsi archive. With Eda Er\, Graves forms the other half of Sada\, a voice/electronics duo charting the storytelling capacities of experimental and improvised music. An alumna of the Harriet Hale Woolley Scholarship\, the Michiko Hirayama Scholarship\, Voix Nouvelles Academy of the Royaumont Foundation\, and Rice University\, she is now a PhD candidate at the University of California\, Berkeley. \n  \nTickets & Availability\nTicket release dates for this set of performances are listed above.

With music in his veins from an early age\, he found his passion in songwriting and forged an authentic style surrounded by a confluence of melodies and rhythms; from Trova and Bolero to Funk and Blues. Now living in Houston\, his language moves from the commercial to the experimental\, and he’s always seeking unique ways to integrate elements from multiple genres. \nCharly is an old soul in a modern age\, an artist weaves timeless emotions into melodies and evokes a musical tapestry that is both classic and contemporary. He has accompanied his steady stream of releases with regular live appearances around Houston; as an opener for Amanda Pascali’s EP debut ‘The Messenger’ and as a solo artist performing in intimate venues and at Sofar Sounds in cities like Houston\, Austin\, and Miami. \nAbout Los Souldees \nLos Souldees are the new band out of Houston Tx bringing you the freshest sounds of chicano soul with a Texas attitude. \n  \nMarket Vendors: \nIvhrit Royalty\nBetter with Butter Bakery\nCrystalWoodshop\nHI Ceramics\nLa Bougie Wick\nLone Star Beards\nMeaningfulTreasFinds\nMy Organic Skin\, LLC\nPopLife Popping Co.\nRoro’s Retro\nShafer Jewellery
