Max Flinn has already had a busy 2020, playing the Steamboat Springs MusicFest and recording and writing new music in Nashville. But the Houston-based country artist is certain that his show at the Rodeo’s Hideout honky-tonk (March 10, rodeohouston.com) will be a highlight of the year. “I've been attending the Rodeo for as long as I can remember, and always dreamed of getting involved musically,” says Flinn, who’s played the Rodeo’s Wine Garden tent for the last couple of years. “The way I look at it, the Hideout is one step closer to the big stage.”

ON SATURDAY JULY 27, Foltz Gallery presents Endless Summer, a lively, playful exhibit of works by a multi-generational group of 28 emerging and established Texas-based artists. Taking its name from the 1974 Beach Boys double-album, which compiled the group’s early 1960s hit singles, the show is a visual “mixtape” of colorful paintings, prints, photographs, wall-based installations, ceramics and sculptures, installed lovingly throughout Foltz’s spacious and sunlit galleries. Among the works in Endless Summer are several examples of handmade “sculptural jewelry” by artist Rachel Gardner — a series of wearable wildflowers and fruits, including olives and strawberries.
