If it’s spring in Brooklyn, there must be an open-studio event somewhere. This weekend there are two: an art crawl in Bushwick, where you’ll see the likes of this elegantly twisted painting from Hannah Mishin (That girl’s on a mission!) along with work presented by 249 other galleries and artists. Open studios are tomorrow and Sunday from noon to 7. Get more info and a downloadable map here. Then there’s the Atlantic Avenue ArtWalk, with loads of artists and deals at 35 area restaurants. From 1 to 6 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday. Read the rest of this entry »
This week in free: Goth dancing, new NPR show, record fair
You survived your weekend with the family and the subsequent Sunday night back-in-Brooklyn bender. Hooray! Why not relax this week and take in some free events from our list of no-cost fall outings? You could be in the audience for the taping of a new NPR quiz show Ask Me Another, learn about the history of Brooklyn’s jump rope girls or relive the season 1 finale of Twin Peaks. Plus, you can get your spiked collar out for goth dance night at The Bell House and top it off by shopping for crafts (goths love crafts, right?) and records at two Williamsburg shopping fairs this weekend. See the whole list here, and send whatever we’re missing to free[at]brokelyn.com!
