1. See Lucinda Williams live at Celebrate Brooklyn!
The celebrated singer-songwriter hits the Prospect Park bandshell with soul singer Jason Walker. Williams'  11th album, Down Where the Spirit Meets the Bone, offers up a double LP's worth of pure Americana that provides ample settings for Williams's love-damaged delivery. (Prospect Park Bandshell, 7:30pm. Free.)

2. Start your Pride celebration at Pat Pride
MEN frontperson JD Samson is back with a special Pride edition of her welcoming, queer Union Pool party. Joining her on the decks will be Amber Valentine, Aaron Clark, Vicki Powell, Robi D Light and the incomparable Lady Miss Kier. Now that’s a DJ lineup to be proud of. (Union Pool, 484 Union Ave, Williamsburg, 10pm. Free)

3. Watch an outdoor screening of Francis Ha
Rooftop Films continues its extensive summer programming with Francis Ha, Noah Baumbach's meandering, black-and-white movie about a 27-year-old Brooklynite grappling with adulthood, friendship and a stream of New York apartments and roommates. (Solar One, On the pier along the water at 24-20 FDR Drive, 8:30pm. Free.)
