What’s the shittiest or strangest job you ever had to do?

Might I encounter the rousing side of Bushwick in this weekend’s top art picks? As I share the sexy side of our artsy enclave on this week’s #BushwickDaily Insta-Takeover, I am tempted to untap the sultry, suprising or bravely sensual side of the neighborhood art scene.
