★MOUNT TREMPER ARTS FESTIVAL (Saturday) What, I have to hang out in the Catskills in the summer to see dance performances and visual art exhibitions when I could be inhaling exhaust fumes in the city?! Fine, twist my arm. On Saturday the Mount Tremper Arts Festival celebrates its inaugural opening night with a new photography exhibition, an installation by jill sigman/thinkdance with D.J. Joro Boro and the Klezmer punk band Golem. Performances include Aynsley Vandenbroucke Movement Group (July 26); the choreographer Jonah Bokaer and the poet Anne Carson (Aug. 2); Dusan Tynek Dance Theater (Aug. 16) and others. Did I mention it’s in the Catskills? (Through Aug. 31.) At 8 p.m., Mount Tremper, N.Y., (877) 238-5596, mttremperarts.com; $20.
