Lots to do

***ZUMIX is sponsoring a series of concerts in East Boston parks this summer. For example, tomorrow evening a duet called Sweet and Lowdown will perform from 5 to 7 p.m. at Bremen Street Park. Check here to see a schedule of performances.

***The Boston Biennial 2009, a juried exhibition of contemporary art, will be presented at the Atlantic Works Gallery, just outside of Maverick Square, from Aug. 6 to 22. Check here for more information at the gallery's web site.

***The new Maverick Station is scheduled to open on Sunday, and a week-long series of music and entertainment is planned to welcome people back to the square. Check out the press release at EastBoston.com for more information.

***The 21st annual Eastie Pride Day -- Saturday, Aug. 15 at Piers Park -- will feature music, food and fun activities for children. The event's web site is here.

***Volunteers are needed to help remove some graffiti from murals along the East Boston Greenway. Email candice@bostonnatural.org if you'd like to help.
