SUMMARY:Man Up Breakfast 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join Us for the 2026 Man Up Breakfast on Saturday\, July 11 at 9AM at Nikki’s Event Center (1153 Centerpoint6 Parkway)! \n  \nBe it mentors\, peers\, or father figures\, each year the Birmingham City Council\, Clinton P. Woods commemorates the men who make District 1 strong. Man Up Breakfast is more than an annual event; it’s an opportunity to honor positive male role models across District 1 for the support\, stability\, and guidance they contribute to our community. \nThe 2026 Man Up theme is: “Find A Need & Fill It”. Inspired by the philosophy of A.G. Gaston Great leaders don’t wait for opportunities—they create them. Whether in their families\, businesses\, churches\, or communities\, men have the power to recognize needs\, open doors\, and make a lasting difference. Inspired by A.G. Gaston’s belief that success begins by finding a need and meeting it\, this conversation will explore how purpose\, initiative\, and action can strengthen communities and leave a legacy that extends far beyond ourselves. \nFree Event | Breakfast Begins at 8:30AM // Program Starts at 9:00 AM (and includes a panel discussion\, honoree presentations\, and special features to celebrate the men in attendance). \nReserve your seat or table today! https://form.jotform.com/BHMDistrict1/2026ManUp

SUMMARY:Still Here\, Still Speaking: Birmingham - panel event and town hall
DESCRIPTION:Still Here\, Still Speaking: Birmingham is a series of civic events dedicated to honoring lived experiences of military service\, sacrifice\, and systemic exclusion that have often gone unrecorded. Led by military families from Secure Families Initiative\, this panel event (June 23rd) and town hall (June 24th) will center testimony and lived experience often excluded from official records. \nAs the nation approaches the 250th anniversary of America’s founding\, these events are intended to honor those who have fought to defend our democracy across generations\, particularly those whose service has historically received lesser recognition. Many of the men and women who defended our nation have returned home only to find that they lack full access to the very liberties they fought to protect. Still Here\, Still Speaking will elevate these stories\, educate the broader public\, and spark meaningful conversation about how communities can welcome and support active-duty military and veteran families. \nJune 23rd – Birmingham Civil Rights Museum – 10a-12pm  \nJune 24th – Carver Theatre\, Jazz Hall Lobby – 5:30-7pm  \nThese events are hosted by Secure Families Initiative and co-sponsored by the Urban League of Alabama and Black Veterans Project. Coffee and light refreshments will be provided at both events.

SUMMARY:Party on the Porch
DESCRIPTION:Party on the Porch is BACK!\nParty on the Porch—commonly known as POP by our staff and guests—is a periodic event that we at Alabama Outdoors host. Our goal? To engage with our community\, help build connections among members of our surrounding areas\, and deliver a fun break on a normal Friday night. \nNow I know you may be asking\, “What is Party on the Porch?” What started as a fun way to engage with our local neighborhood has snowballed into something bigger—and we can’t wait to introduce a brand-new Party on the Porch. \nNow\, if you’ve been to one of our POPs before\, you probably remember how distinct it was. Drinks\, a band\, some areas for cornhole\, and more. However\, we’ve decided that our beloved POP needed a rebrand\, so we’ve decided to shake it up! And don’t worry\, we’re listing all our fun new additions below\, so you can get the full picture of what is to come! \n1. Free Admission \nWe know that sometimes it’s fun to go out and try events around town—so we want to make that experience as seamless as possible! Enjoy free admission to make friends\, build community\, and explore the Homewood area. \n2. Philanthropy \nOur Party on the Porch will be benefiting Darling Grey’s Philanthropy. Darling Grey is not only a brand we carry but also a mission we strongly support. They are dedicated to helping survivors of human trafficking find jobs\, resources\, and support. We are honored to support their mission with donations\, no matter how big or small! \n3. Free Drinks for Donors (21+) \nAs a thank you to those who donate $10 or more to Darling Grey’s philanthropy\, we are offering free drinks! (As long as you are over 21). Think of it as our way of paying it forward and thanking you for supporting their cause. \n4. Live DJ \nWe’re keeping the tunes flowing with a live DJ. Look forward to a lively atmosphere with family-friendly tracks everyone can enjoy \n5. Par-Tees Pars Golf Simulator \nWe’re excited to have Par-Tees Par Golf Simulator on-site for all the golfers. Featuring a fun\, inflatable golf simulator\, you can try out courses like Ross Bridge\, Pebble Beach\, and Augusta National \n6. Shopping Spree Giveaway \nEvery donation to Darling Grey also enters you for a chance to win our raffle! We will be giving away a $100 gift card every 30 minutes from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm. Every 30 minutes when we pull from the raffle\, the winner must be present to win. Make sure to hold onto your tickets to see if you’re one of our winners! \n7. Exclusive Merch \nWe will have exclusive Party on the Porch merchandise available! Show off your attendance in style with pieces that can only be bought at this event. \n8. Fun Food Trucks \nWith this POP revamp\, we’ve decided to reach out to local vendors and have many options for food at our event. We have Eugene’s Hot Chicken\, a Birmingham staple that serves hot chicken you’ll swear came from Nashville itself. Next\, we have Wasabi Juan’s– a sushi burrito spot that has charmed everyone who has had it. Unlike the typical sushi burrito place\, Wasabi Juan’s is a true Mexican Japanese fusion spot\, blending the two cuisines into something seriously delicious. In the mood for something sweet? Don’t worry\, we’ve made sure to book Sweet Chill and South Fizz Soda\, two options that will help that sweet craving at the end of the night. \nWe cannot wait to see you at our Party on the Porch!

Publishers Weekly praised Captain Underpants as “subversively hilarious.” Newsweek called Captain Underpants “a triumph of irreverence\,” Slate.com hailed the series “slyly intelligent…revolutionary\,” and Entertainment Weekly called it “irresistible.” Captain Underpants has won multiple state book awards\, many of which were voted on by children. USA Today called Dav Pilkey “the savior of the reluctant reader.” \nLaunched nearly 30 years ago\, the Captain Underpants series has more than 90 million copies in print to date and translations in 37 languages. DreamWorks Animation released Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie in theaters worldwide. The film featured the voices of Kevin Hart (George Beard)\, Thomas Middleditch (Harold Hutchins)\, Ed Helms (Captain Underpants)\, Nick Kroll (Professor Poopypants)\, and Jordan Peele (Melvin). \nAbout Dav Pilkey\nDav Pilkey has created over 75 books for children and was awarded a Caldecott Honor for his picture book The Paperboy. When Dav Pilkey was in second grade\, he was diagnosed with dyslexia and what is now widely known as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Because of his learning and behavioral issues in school\, he was often sent out in the hallway. It was in his elementary school hallway where he created comic books about superheroes that eventually became Captain Underpants and Dog Man. Pilkey’s blockbuster phenomenon Dog Man released in 2016 has more than 70 million copies in print to date\, translations in 50 languages\, and is one of the bestselling graphic novel series of all time. The hit movie adaptation of Dog Man was released by DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures featuring the voices of Pete Davidson\, Isla Fisher\, Lil Rel Howery\, and Ricky Gervais. Cat Kid Comic Club series\, a spin-off of Dog Man which highlights how lessons in creativity often reflect lessons in real life\, is also a #1 worldwide bestseller\, translated in 28 languages to date\, and has been adapted to a hit musical from TheaterworksUSA. Dav’s first graphic novel\, The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby\, was published 24 years ago and became an instant national bestseller.

SUMMARY:Sunday Story Seven - with storyteller VINCE FABRA and special musical guest WILL STEWART
DESCRIPTION:$5 Advance tickets available until 5pm on April 13\n$10 (online after 5pm on April 13) \nDoor tickets available subject to availability \n* * * * * \nAct I – Open Mic storytelling. Put your name in the hat for a chance to share a personal\, true story onstage. \nAct II – Our featured storyteller is comedian and public speaker Vince Fabra \nAct III – Stories and Songs with Will Stewart \nWay Gone\, the stirring new mini-album from Birmingham AL singer-songwriter-guitarist\, Will Stewart\, doesn’t waste any time: In just 23 minutes\, Stewart’s follow-up to 2018’s critically-acclaimed County Seat rips through six keenly-detailed portraits of restless\, desperate souls with white line ferocity – as if he’s on a mission to chronicle the tales of these disparate nighthawks before the sun comes up. Despite the rush\, Way Gone somehow stops to smell the roses via revealing lyrics and softer tunes that belie deep\, opposing tensions. This is most evident on Way Gone’s opening track – and first single – “Southern Raphael”: A late-night tale of dive bar flirtation propelled by taut rhythms and skittery guitars. The atmosphere is gradually thickened by subtle synths that rise and converge with the guitars until they burst into crescendo – detonated by a lyrical twist that’s either deeply romantic or utterly terrifying. Possibly both. It’s like Cormac McCarthy writing lyrics for The Feelies – which makes it both an outlier and a perfect way to kick off this gripping\, novella-like collection of songs. MORE ABOUT WILL HERE \n* * * * * \nWHAT IS THE STORY SEVEN? \nHave you always wanted to tell a story onstage? Or do you prefer to listen while others share? Either way\, join us at the monthly storytelling variety show the Sunday Story Seven. The open mic is open to new and seasoned storytellers – just put your name in the hat for a chance to tell a 5-minute true tale. No notes\, no theme – just you and the mic! Never tried a storytelling open mic before? Love hearing true\, personal stories? Love live music? Come see what it’s all about. \n* If you would like to put your name in the hat to participate in the open mic\, reserve your free ticket using the code “STORYTELLER”.  There is no guarantee that your name will be called\, but if you choose to use this free promo code\, please come ready with a five-minute true story to share\, without notes. This is not a comedy routine\, and it must be a real story that happened to you. If the show is not sold out\, you may also put your name in the hat when you arrive\, but the only free tickets for storytellers are via advance reservations.
