Lenny Seidman and Thomas Wave will perform on the tabla and sitar

Welcome summer with Isaiah Zagar and co. at Philadelphia's Magic Gardens third annual Summer Solstice. Don't forget your creativity because you will have the chance to make and bring home creations of your own. This year's theme is Once Upon a Tile, and will feature wide spectrum of performers, from Fred the Magician to barbershop quartet Frank the Dog. The event kicks off with music and 2 p.m., followed by dancing and craft making. Are you a devoted Solstice attendee? Gallery Manager Laura Foxx says this year differs from last year because there will be a block party component, involving art and food vendors surrounding the Magic Gardens. So you'll get to browse goodies — both edible and visual — while getting your groove on. Representatives from Buttercream Cupcakes, Renaissance Sausage, Sugar Philly and Honest Tom's Tacos will be waiting for you to have a taste. Feel free to bring your own booze but Fergie's Pub and ROOT will be serving to the over 21-year-olds at 6 p.m.

Sat., June 26, 1-10 p.m., $5-$10, Philadelphia's Magic Gardens, 1020 South St., 215-733-0390, phillymagicgardens.org.
