Guys, cancel all your commitments, change the location of your dates, tell your mom you can’t see her next weekend (sorry!) because this coming week (October 2-5) officially belongs to Bushwick Film Festival (BFF)! Huge celebration of domestic as well as international indie cinema is happening in your neighborhood, and you as a proper Bushbaby should not miss this!

In case you were unaware of this gem, David Bowie and Mick Jagger covered “Dancing in the Streets,” back in their hay day, and it seems pretty representative of what everyone should do this weekend

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 Thursday Bushwick Daily and small urban press Catopolis launched their first book collaboration ever, Bushwick Nightz at Lot 45! The book includes 12 short stories about life in the hood’, including everything from gentrification to one-night stands. We’ve been talking about this book […]

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

On the Friday before Pride Day (and just in time for Bushwick Pride this coming weekend), I had the enormous pleasure of seeing the New York premier of an indie comedy about lesbian prostitutes working the streets of NYC and the clitorises of some mild to severely deranged Republican housewives

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

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 […]

This week’s Friday First is a triple-whammy, featuring 3 brand new videos from 3 local NYC bands

Take a look around, Bushwick

Our favorite hyperlocal festival, The Out In The Streets Festival, has just announced its 2014 dates! The festival will return to The Onderdonk Famhouse in Ridgewood on July 26th and 27th, 2014

Everything seems to be going full speed in life lately. The days are longer, but they go by faster and there’s more to be done. Ferris Bueller said it right when he quipped, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” So, taking heed […]

It’s been almost five months since denizens of the city’s creatively entrepreneurial set would trek several blocks east from the Morgan L stop to head to the 3rd Ward space at 195 Morgan Avenue in East Williamsburg, to take classes ranging from stop-motion animation to jewelry design

You’re going to have to wait till next year to experience the most amazing roller jam at a Bushwick warehouse! But hey, that’s a good thing because at least that gives you time to find a way to make friends with the cool ladies from Patina, a Bushwick-based décor, prop, and furniture rental studio that collaborates with NYC’s coolest event planners, film studios and photographers in providing the most unique props for rent

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

Last Friday, Grace Exhibition Space was overtaken with the infamous, dynamic and always entertaining Non Grata performance group

Bushwick is slowly but surely become a mecca for vintage clothes of all sorts

Mellow Pages, the beloved open-source library and reading room located on the first floor of 56 Bogart, needs your help: founders Jacob Perkins and Matt Nelson are asking their community to support the space with a newly launched Indiegogo campaign while the Mellow Pages gang figures out its next steps

I hope that Banksy and his residency in the streets of New York City is not old news for you yet because after 17 days of surprises, highlights, and a total obsession on the part of many, Banksy hit the Bed Stuy-Bushwick border today

Have you been feeling that civic organizations in the neighborhood have been lacking a certain esoteric je ne sais quois? Well, you’re not alone

Northside Festival, Brooklyn’s answer to SXSW, isn’t just music

Yes, this is New York and we all have to make peace with the fact that we’ll be stuck with roommate(s) until we’re about 40

Still reeling from the craziness that was Bushwick Open Studios, our community has settled down (slightly)

Saying we’ve got a music crush on this band is a massive understatement

When you first listen to Sensual Harassment, one might think they came from the Cosmos

If you’ve ever dreamed about being one of the sun-bleached and tanned cadre of New York City surfers, there is no better time to get started
