This weekend in the arts in San Diego: A new interactive children's exhibit celebrating Octavia Butler; theater about basketball; Mussorgsky; Barrio Art Crawl; poetry about grief; binational art; live music picks and more.

The trademark sound of Russell Hitchcock's soaring tenor voice and Graham Russell's simple yet majestic songs created a unique sound that would forever be known as Air Supply. However, it is the live shows that always hold audiences captive around the world. They were the first Western group to tour China, Taiwan, and countless other countries that before would not allow pop music across their borders. In 1983 they recorded "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All" by Jim Steinman which solidified the group as a permanent force in modern music. This song was released on The Greatest Hits album which soared past 7 million copies. "Lost in Love", "All Out of Love", "The One That You Love", "Sweet Dreams", and "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All" have each achieved multi-million plays on the radio. With special Guest Sutton James. For more information visit: humphreysconcerts.com Stay Connected on Facebook
