XXXmas is here, guyz.

The literal translation for the German word Bierleichen is beer corpse

Turn up the lights in here, baby, extra bright y’all need to read this

Yo, 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

Tonight from 7 PM to 10 PM, Bushwick Food Co-Op will be hosting a fundraiser at The Tradesman! Come prepared to donate a winter coat or gift, and in exchange, receive a free raffle ticket

In a neighborhood whose nightlife scene is almost aestheticized to the point where a boob-themed bar feels totally white bread, it was a thrill to spend time in a bare bones straight up all-about-the-music hard rock venue that feels at once both casual and charged with a music lovers energy

Here at Bushwick Daily we’re getting ready for a ’12 Days of Christmas’ countdown beginning later this week

You may or may not know me but I joined the Bushwick Daily team in 2011 – first as Copyeditor, then as Managing Editor and now as Contributing Editor. Back then, I was working a day-job that made me feel distanced from all things creative, and I had just moved to a new neighborhood, Bushwick. I was stuck […]

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

Have you noticed that Bushwick is home to tons (and we mean tons) of churches? We did – and so did  Dimitri Manousakis, our photog for the latest installment of Insta-Takeovers! Dimitri, a photographer, mixologist for a Greek restaurant, and resident mixographer for Bushwick Daily, wandered our broad neighborhood and captured the exteriors of many Bushwick houses of worship on camera

Holiday Christmas Tree_Katie Killary We just got good news from the North Pole: while they may be sending another polar vortex our way, it turns out there’s a union of human-sized elves about to bring “Christmastown” to the one and only Bushwick as well. What is Christmastown? And WHO are these so-called human-sized elves? They sound cute, and because I’ve always […]

Halloween just might be Bushwick’s favorite time of year

When Jen Charboneau and Bernard McNerney met as ESL teachers in South Korea, they had no idea that they would someday finish a 12,000-mile trip to promote community-driven art through pop-up events across the United States

We hope you aren’t tired of summer festivals yet because this one is also not to be missed! Last year, Out In the Streets included a stellar lineup with Turnip King, Wild Yaks, and Pictureplane and this weekend get ready for another awesome lineup of music with headliners including A Place to Bury Strangers, Body Language, Hunters, as well as Memphis’ Cities Aviv! Bird Dog Productions, The Sky Report, and Supercrush Studio have teamed up to put on this festival at the Onderdonk house in Ridgewood for the second year, and promise us music, art and food! YES!

Last year we fawned over local festival Out In The Streets, which spanned two fantastic days of music, food, art, drinks, dancing, hula hooping (see this video for a demonstration by yours truly), and overall good vibes

So as you may know by now, each week I peruse the #Bushwick hashtag on Instagram, and post the best of what you were wearing around the hood

This week’s Listening Party features the Santa Barbara boys Gardens & Villa and their upcoming show  next Tuesday at Music Hall of Williamsburg.  Listening Party is a curated weekly column promoting music discovery and encouraging concert-going. Featuring someone we’ve been jamming out to and we recommend to the masses, each Listening Party artist has an upcoming show at a […]

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

This week I’m going to digress from my usual comments on the neighborhood brews to bring you to my small hometown in the heartland of America

Neither man nor woman can live solely in Bushwick

Have you ever had a chance to observe the difference between the weekend and Monday crowds at the gym? Every Monday we absolve the weekend’s sins of alcohol and excessive debaucheries by rushing into the gym, replacing bloody marys with smoothies, and retrying that diet we started last Monday and quit on Friday

Ever heard of Nicole Wolcott? She’s an established choreographer, teacher and performance artist living in Bushwick who you should know

Just when I thought the Barbershop was going the way of the Dodo, one opens up in Bushwick

Hey cool kids! Want the rub on some great new music? Then please click elsewhere because the following words are about Green Jellÿ, the worst fucking band in the world

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

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 […]

Dear Santa… You know that feeling when you have so much to say about something, you really can’t decide what to say first and you get stuck? Hmm… You’re saying you don’t know that feeling because you’re a great multitasker thanks to all the practice with the rain deer navigation and all the presents you […]

Puerto Rican houses on Central Ave are furiously decorated
