1. Sarasota Film Festival Friday Night Street Party
B-52s singer-songwriter Fred Schneider, who longtime SFF attendees will recall performed with his trailblazing new wave band at the festival in 2004, is the celebrity host of the Sarasota Film Festival’s block party in The Rosemary District, outside the festival’s brand new office. This event will feature performances by what’s being billed as “a host of notable musicians” with food trucks offering cuisine from around the world. No word on whether attendees will get to hear B-52s hits like Rock Lobster or Love Shack. 7:30-10:30 p.m. Friday; Sarasota Film Festival, 323 Central Ave., Sarasota; $10; sarasotafilmfestival.com/events
