Night Moves: Sun Ra Arkestra at ICA

Don't know what to do tonight? Don't worry, we've got you covered.

Combine all of the ICA's events in honor of the late, great jazz artist Sun Ra — the exhibit featuring drawings, album covers and rare tracks by and about him, John Szwed's July 8 lecture and tonight's performance by his band, and you've practically got an ever-changing shrine in West Philly to the guy.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. He was one of the weirdest, most creative Philadelphians to originally come from Saturn, ever.


Wed., July 1, 7 p.m., $5-$10, Institute for Contemporary Arts, 118 S. 36th St., 215-898-7108, icaphila.org.
