Premier Bushwick DIY venue Silent Barn is looking for some goodwill-capable community-minded souls to assist with a couple of projects they have in the works, and if you like the local music scene and have experience being pleasant with strangers, that could mean YOU!

Silent Barn has just announced an Aftermath Class series to accompany their Aftermath Supplies art supplies store, yet another example of how prosperous the new DIY music venue and community space is shaping out to be! These classes – which are quite affordable and run every, or every other, Wednesday evening – act as introductions to a whole realm of skills and trades, from bike repairs to drumming!

The next three weekends are a zine enthusiast’s paradise as North Brooklyn becomes the home of multiple festivals dedicated to the DIY art form.
