The summer concert season officially kicks off with the start of the annual Green Flash Concert Series held at the Birch Aquarium the third Wednesday of each month through September. While all the artists had not been confirmed at press time, highlights include Michigan singer-songwriter Borns on May 18 and Australian alt-rockers Atlas Genius on June 15. The concerts are held on the aquarium’s outdoor tide-pool plaza, complete with panoramic ocean views, but the best part is that funds raised benefit exhibits and educational programming at the Birch Aquarium.
Green Flash Concert Series, Wednesday, May 18 at the Birch Aquarium at Scripps, 2300 Expedition Way, 6:30 p.m. 21 and up.
