We’re beyond bummed to report that on Troutman Street will be closing come December 1. Although the owners didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment, rumor has it that rent went up astronomically this year and the involved parties could no longer afford to stay in the work/live/yoga/party space. After 3 years in business bringing […]

One Bushwick bar owner opened his inbox the other day, only to find out with terror that Santacon, the (in)famous bar crawl of thousands of drunken Santas will be held in Bushwick this year

Bushwick galleries are kicking up the pace as we enter into the mid-summer scape. While the rest of the art world may be on vacation (oh we’re not jealous of the sand, surf and sun they’re experiencing—okay maybe we are…) we are experiencing more commotion from the current set. Bushwick’s summer kids are in a sort of microcosm—a […]

Have you heard? #BOS2014 is right around the corner! It’s the chatter on the street, the Facebook invites, and the bustling in your neighbors studio; these are the sounds of hundreds of artists, curators, and organizers preparing to throw New York City’s largest open studio event! Look forward to 600+  artist studios open to the public, free live music, performance art showcases, panel discussions, outdoor festivals, and so much more! As those involved in the planning process will be spending the long weekend dotting our i’s and crossing our t’s, hopefully some of you will have time to relax and check out some of our best recent stories:

Remember that “tornado” threat a couple weeks back? Around these parts, the only tornado we witnessed touched ground inside Music Hall of Williamsburg on the night of October 2

The Good Festival, presented by Local Roots NYC, a local CSA, landed at Brooklyn Fire Proof 10 days ago

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!

It looks like the end of days is near and the Mayans have us all freaked

The Industrial poetry of Meserole Street is smudged when I sprint past by the warehouse where the guys from Navegante rehearse every day. “It’s all in your head”, Jean Shepherd, yells in my headphones. It feels like there is a fourth dimension to their music. Short breath, my feet are in monotone frequency touching and […]
