From outdoor movies and concerts, to green markets and nature hikes, we want to soak up as much open-air activity as possible before hurricane season settles in and the oppressive heat and humidity drive us indoors. Searching for ideas? Look no further than our calendar listings — assembled each month by Michele Smith and Kathleen Bell. ABOVE: After successfully screening Casablanca in May, Delray plans to show Tom and Jerry on June 25. Tim Stepien/The Coastal Star
