Walk/Ride Day Evening from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Friday at Magazine Beach, at the river end of Magazine Street in the Cambridgeport neighborhood. Free.

Celebrate the end of the week and month as well as the idea of green commuting with music, poetry and maybe a dip in the pool (before 7 p.m.). Bring blankets, beach towels and a picnic dinner to supplement bread donated by Iggy’s and lemonade and other snacks donated and served by Trader Joe’s. There will also be free Clif Bars for participants and a raffle for Kryptonite bike locks. The event – to which you should come via green transportation, obviously – is brought to you by the Cambridgeport Neighborhood Association. Information is here.

This night of live music (by Spo, DCDR, currents, Great News and Psychic Dog), comedy (it’s hosted by The Daley Grimes), art (live painting and an art show, as well as a photo booth) and cool vendors (pretty much too many to mention) is an inaugural event celebrating the local intermingling of the music and art community.

“Stay Clear of the Closing Doors”: The Synapse Solo Art Show from 8 to 11 p.m. Saturday at Kulturez, 36 JFK St., The Garage Mall, Harvard Square. Free.

The artist Synapse spots people on the T, sketches them, puts them on stickers and “displays” them everywhere – including back on the trains he travels. Now his work has been gathered at the Kulturez hip-hop style store for a party and showing, one of the rare art shows you might attend where you’re going to find yourself in what’s on the walls. Information is here.

Is that too late? Check out “Space, Object & Artifact” from 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday at The Nave Gallery, 155 Powderhouse Blvd., near Teele Square, Somerville, a free show in which artists Kate Benson, Carolyn Latourelle and Emily Manning-Mingle explore what the spaces we occupy and our belongings reveal about us, and how personal objects and places elicit emotional responses from those unfamiliar with them. Information is here.
