Whether you love it or hate it, the Hallmark holiday is indeed this Sunday: Valentine’s Day, The day of bodega flowers, Fine and Raw Chocolate, and those couples blowing up your Facebook feed professing their love for each other (“#blessed!!”)

Just as new restaurants, bars, shops and markets continue to pop up like mushrooms all over town, the Bushwick art openings are keeping the holiday madness going through the weekend

It’s that time of year when you’re trying extra hard to fit in an art exhibit between all the Christmas shopping, office parties and general holiday madness

Celebrate gift-giving season right here in Bushwick.

Maybe you missed your flight home, or maybe your home is right here! Either way, if you’re hanging around the neighborhood for the holiday, here’s a great way to spend that special day, Christmas, and its little brother, Christmas Eve

This time next week, it’ll be fucking CHRISTMAS–How insane is that?! If you haven’t finished (or even started) your Xmas shopping we’d like to share five small gifts with you

Holiday Christmas Tree_Katie Killary Picking out the right gift can be hard. Especially when the cashflow is tight and your Holiday-gift list is stacked with friends. But fret not! Bushwick Daily is here to help you with 10 gifts for $10 and under so you can make a stylish, original, and economic choice without stressing. […]

Sometimes during the holidays, you need an escape for some gifts-piration

You know what? I’m all out of jokes

Ask anyone who lives off the L Train and they’ll tell you they’ve payed witness to the Union Square Holiday Market or Brooklyn Flea

Are you an orphan? Do you hate your relatives? Do your relatives hate you? Are you allergic to turkey or to holiday cheer? Well, no worries, hanging around the neighborhood during the holiday weekend won’t be too terrible, because there are at LEAST five places keeping their doors open on or near Turkey Day for all you misfits

It’s labor day weekend– which is frightening, also exciting

So while you were Xmas-ing, Kwanza-ing, and bitching about Hannukah being over way too early this year, all this happened in Bushwick

I think that everyone who came to Bushwick Daily Holiday + 3rd Birthday Party at The Rookery will agree that it was a wild wild occasion

This past Saturday virtually dozens of cats and dogs were involuntarily dressed up in holiday clothes, and forced to pose with their pet parents for an awkward family picture

Holiday cheer is culminating! Just last night at The Rookery, a big party and some bourbon eggnog went down at Bushwick Daily’s holiday slash 3rd birthday party

Haven’t left for the holidays yet? Staying in town for the strangely warm holiday week ahead? Thank goodness! There’s a long list of great shows to choose from this weekend

Ah yes, the Ides of December

Face it, winter is here, Ned Stark tried to warn us but we inevitably find ourselves in the same place every year

Hello near and dear friends! We hope you’re not hibernating/holiday dreaming just yet because this Thursday we need you! We need you to celebrate with us in a big fashion because it’s Bushwick Daily’s third birthday! And not only that – it’s the holidays! So the big bash will be going down in one of our fave neighborhood watering holes, The Rookery

Dear lovely Bushwick Daily community! It is that time of the year again

Want a dose of the local Holiday Spirit? 19 Wyckoff Avenue, a branch of Bushwick’s Five Points, was crawling with some of the world’s finest street artists on Saturday, all dedicated to depicting their Winter Solstice favorites

It took us about three days to recover

Dear friends, readers and supporters,

Gentle Falling Snow ……… Animated This gif was clearly not created in Bushwick. (via flick.com) In December, you can easily find me running around and peeking into every single Holiday market stand, sipping egg nog directly from the box, inhaling the smell of live Christmas trees by the Morgan L stop and dragging my boyfriend […]

Ho Ho Ho, fellow Bushwickians! Have you noticed that your favorite deli is now selling winter season ales and Xmas trees?! What? Also your neighbor installed some furious winter decoration that won’t stop flickering and playing Jingle Bells tune 24/7?
