Here is a sampling of the week’s events and how to tune in (all times are Eastern). Note that events are subject to change after publication.
Monday
Hitch a ride to the small town of Valentines, Va., where, under other circumstances, the artist Kevin Beasley would have assembled with his family for their annual reunion in August. Instead, he has imagined the journey for the Casey Kaplan gallery in Manhattan with a series of sculptures that can be viewed online. Its centerpiece, “The Road” (2019), depicts a length of asphalt stretching into the sunset as two children play nearby and birds fly overhead — and made from raw Virginia cotton, dyed durags, chopped-up rubber tires and guinea fowl feathers.

Saturday
Take in a performance by the Choctaw musician Samantha Crain to cap the end of First Peoples Week. The online festival celebrates North American Indigenous culture and is produced by the Greene Space, a venue that belongs to New York Public Radio. Of Ms. Crain, The New York Times wrote, “Her dense arrangements — layered with dainty piano melodies, horns, tape loops, the works — achieve a cozy lushness, as if she were spinning a protective cocoon in which to retreat from the traumas that populate her songs.”
When 8 p.m.

Sunday
Turn your children’s leftover vegetables into art with this experiment offered by the Kidspace Children’s Museum. You’ll need food scraps, a sauce pan, a strainer, water and containers for the soon-to-be-made watercolor paints. Tip: Pour the different colors into an ice tray and freeze to use again.
