Creative Arts 4 Kids Butterfly House
Ducking into MOCA is a great way to escape the sweltering heat, but your kids might not be up for browsing contemporary art all afternoon.

Get your girls—it’s ladies’ night. The all-female comic lineup includes Adele Givens, Loni Love, Sherri Shepherd and Nene Leakes of Real Housewife fame and beyond. The long-running BET tour is one R&B fans do not want to miss.
