Bushwick is heading into Memorial Day weekend with slivers of fantasy, spook and quantum science in this week’s art openings
Dust off your Doc Martens and safety pins because things are getting pretty punk this weekend! And its the best kind: local, underground, and in venues that look like east London basements
Thank you, Red Bull Music Academy, for sponsoring this post
Turn up the lights in here, baby, extra bright y’all need to read this
Bushwick’s art playground is still kicking with four new solo exhibitions opening on Friday night at Wayfarers, NURTUREart, GCA and Interstate Projects, plus a group show at Fresh Window that plays on all of the attractions and distractions of abstraction
The weekend starts NOW! Get to a concert starting tonite and continue through Sunday! Here are your top 6 shows in Bushwick
Since 2009 a gallery-going adventure has occurred across the neighborhood, it’s organizer, Jason Andrew, artist and director of the collaborative arts non-profit Norte Maar, leading the way
At this point in the winter, after spending weeks on end going straight home after work and only leaving your apartment for the corner bodega and your local bar, you might be getting a little Bushwick cabin fever
What’s UP 2015, where the new fresh, new #DIY lives, where’s we wipe away Brooklyn’s 2014 losses and look only onward to where the grass is just starting to grow
Shake it off, commands New York City’s “Global Welcome Ambassador for Tourism,” the completely manufactured Tay Swift
Get swept away this weekend with a whole lotta great shows this weekend in Bushwick and beyond! This week we’ve got house parties, disco dancing, spookfolk concerts, and Escape Festival going down on Governor’s Island!
Counting down to the weekend can be brutal… but not when you live in Brooklyn, surrounded by vibrant youth (and lots of booze)… the party starts on Thursday! Here are your top 6 options for music this weekend, starting NOW! #6 Aputumpu Festival / Saul Wiliams, Osekre & The Lucky Bastards, Patrice, more @ Le Poisson […]
It’s nearing the end of August, and dang
While in the dog days of summer it’s tempting to feel incredibly burned out by sun, booze, and an overload of summer shows, think back. Way back. To 2005 in fact. When you belted out All American Rejects lyrics guilt free in the shower. When Tyson Ritter told you to move along, you jumped. For Fun. For Freedom. To […]
Yes, we know it’s really hot out there–and oddly windy on certain recent nights! But, think back to the winter when we thought we would never sweat again
It’s that time again! America’s Birthday; another great reason to have outdoor shows, BBQ everything in sight and celebrate for the entire four days whether or not you have any patriotism in your bones
Sh-sh-shaking, I’m
This Saturday marks the year’s longest day which means we should all take advantage of the long days and warm nights to get out and about this weekend! As is usually the case during these high summer weeks, galleries are getting creative and taking chances, and experimenting with new and exciting curatorial decisions and venues
The sun is out and you should be too this Saturday, June 21st, for an amazing FREE one-day festival called Make Music New York
Still burnt out from Governors Ball last weekend? Sorry, kids; it’s time to do it all again. Starting Thursday, the summer festival fun continues with Northside, a magical, musical journey that traverses all of north Brooklyn, plus the wilds of your imagination. It’s a neverending story of awesome shows, both official and unofficial, so no […]
It seems like there have been a lot of Gemini birthdays in Bushwick lately, and many more coming up! Some of the best qualities about these beautiful Air-sign babies is that they represent duality, are versatile, talkative, intellectual, and fun to be around. They provide great company and are lucky to be born in the budding […]
Remember when the Girls took to Bushwick to rage out in a warehouse and (accidentally) smoke crack? Well, that’s not the route we recommend you go this weeken–maybe instead grab a 5-hour energy to get your fix as you hop around art shows by day and hit the rock and roll by night! Not all these shows are tied in with Bushwick Open Studios, but they will all be mega-fun and nothing like the gif above (hopefully?)

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”dN8fROFYJAemosL3KkZKvVIwUAfhxNWH”] While there are still ridiculously cold days, we can all be thankful that spring is (mostly) here and finally we can party outdoors… or continue to hang indoors, thankful we can do so without giant coats. We can potentially start our hangouts earlier and possibly outdoors, and maybe even have a backyard BBQ. […]
Take a look around, Bushwick
Spring has sprung, and like in the movie Shawshank Redemption, we are free (and doused by a lot of rain this week)! Let’s make the most of it. There are a myriad of places to keep you in budget, buzzed, and get that little cardio going to help with the winter bulge. Here are you top […]
Are you PUMPED that it’s finally getting warm? Yeah, maybe it’s a little rainy, but that’s all part of spring on the upswing. What better way to rally in the gorgeous weather than to rock out at some rad shows?! We’ve crafted a list featuring a couple really great free concerts balanced out by some slightly […]
SXSW may be fading into our rearview mirror but the hangover that came along with it isn’t
Get ready, because this weekend is about to get fabulous! We have 10 ass-kicking shows for you to choose from for an enhanced musical weekend experience
Going home for the Holidays always seems like a good idea
The weather is warm! The weather is rainy! You wore too many layers! Your shoe has a hole! You want to drown your sorrows! You want to smoke on the back patio but it’s not open! WAH
How does one move forward in life when there is tragedy? Our neighborhood has been struck with

Have the post-Halloween blues got you down? Still feeling burnt out from last night’s spooky celebrations? Not a chance! Halloween was just the beginning; the weekend is upon us, so don’t stop now! (Plus, we need to work off all those Reese’s Pieces.) Starting Friday night, keep the festivities going with Grooms, Au Revoir Simone, […]
Ok, maybe the title of this post is a bit deceiving as it’s not technically Halloween this weekend. But, when a holiday falls on a measley Thursday night, what are you to do?! Celebrate the weekend before AND the weekend after, of course! This year our calendars are full of pre-Halloween parties, especially on Saturday […]
