You’re invited to sign up and share your story of curiosity and nosiness. You’re limited to five minutes to talk about the time you couldn’t mind your own damn business.

ASHLEY-ANNA ABOREDEN FRI 5/3 ▼ DESIGN DISTRICT NEW BODY FORM On Friday, the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami will present the first U.S. solo exhibi- tion of the works of Lebanese artist Huguette Caland. “Huguette Caland: Outside the Line (1970–84)” explores the work of the late art- ist, who is recognized for her figurative and abstract paintings, transforming the body into subtle lines and bursts of color that are both intimate and erotic. Her work subverted the portrayal of the female form and chal- lenged the viewer’s interpretation. 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday through October 6, at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, 61 NE 41st St., Miami; 305-901-5272; icamiami.org. Admis- sion is free. JOSE D. DURAN ▼ SOUTH BEACH PAY TO PLAY In the age of OnlyFans, it seems like everyone is filming their most intimate moments for every- one to see at a price. (No judgment.) But before fan sites came into existence, columnist and podcaster Dan Savage was inviting everyone to create adult content for real people, by real people. Appropriately presented by gay hookup app Sniffies, Hump! Film Festival will re- turn to O Cinema on Friday and Saturday with 23 short films that explore the full range of sex. Because the festival received so many entries this year, this is one part one, with Hump! re- turning later this fall with a whole new slate of shorts. 7 and 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday, at O Cinema, 1130 Washington Ave., Miami Beach; humpfilmfest.com. Tickets cost $20. JOSE D. DURAN ▼ MIAMI GARDENS SEE YOU AT THE FINISH LINE Racing fans, start your engines!

Sheeran doesn’t really need an introduction, but he’s probably your mom’s favorite pop star thanks to his heartfelt lyrics, soulful mel- odies, and a blend of pop, folk, and acoustic. Last year, he released his sixth album, - (pro- nounced “subtract”), which includes the hits “Eyes Closed” and “Life Goes On.” Expect him to touch on his newer stuff, as well as hits like “Shape of You,” “Thinking Out Loud,” and “Bad Habits.” 8 p.m. Friday, at Hard Rock Live, 1 Seminole Way, Hollywood; 954-797- 5531; myhrl.com.

Veteran DJ Carl Cox is taking over M2 for a four-hour extended set as part of Ultra’s Resistance residency at the nightclub. He’ll be joined by German duo Hidden Empire and up-and-coming producer m.O.N.R.O.E. Cox will hit partygoers with dance-floor-ready beats, heavy synths, and soulful melodies.

SOPHIA MEDINA ▼ MID-BEACH PARTY PATROL In 2020, John Summit seemingly came out of nowhere when he dropped his breakthrough track “Deep End.” After the pandemic re- strictions were lifted, he was suddenly one of the most in-demand DJs, headlining festivals and nightclubs all over the world. A native of Naperville, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, Summit calls Miami home these days, so nat- urally, he’ll be helping celebrate Miami Race Week with a set at LIV on Friday.
