Burdick Collection,” showcasing the gloved sport’s popularity in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

On July 6, cookbook author and Food Network TV personality Ayesha Curry will team up with Bay Area chef Michael Mina for the launch of their restaurant, International Smoke, in Houston.

Directed by Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui, MCQUEEN explores the life of legendary fashion designer Alexander McQueen, from his humble beginnings in London’s underprivileged Stratford region, to head of Givenchy and later launching his eponymous line. The documentary (in theaters on July 20) features candid interviews with colleagues, friends, and family and looks at how the intense pressure of creating 14 collections a year played a role in his tragic suicide.

Not only is this three-day New York City-based festival (running July 27 to 29) home to some of music’s biggest names such as Janet Jackson, The Weeknd, and The Killers, but it also features The Lab, an experience that combines technology and design, curated by top NYC artists.
