The smoke may have just cleared from this year’s Labor Day weekend Riverfest party, but plenty of fireworks are ahead this week, with a mix of still-summer outdoor fun and fall arts seasons gearing up.

From Looney Tunes to Calcutta, take note of this week’s four unique film choices. Summermusik eyes its midpoint with a trip to India. Get your summer lobster fix at the Great Inland Seafood Festival. And the Playhouse opens its season with the thriller of all thrillers. Fall is in our sights, but let’s finish this summer thing out. You can do it!

The arts are alive and well even in the dead of summer. Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra opens its monthlong Summermusik festival, while the Kentucky Symphony Orchestra gets movin’ across the river. Queen City Opera’s game-changing take on Mozart’s “Magic Flute” jumps on at the Aronoff. Plenty of outdoor music and some good theater pieces round out the week.
