An alien-themed meditation night, a burlesque drag show at 3 Dollar Bill, a Donut Lounge and more. Here are the events happening this week (July 21-28) in Bushwick.

UPDATE: Update! Rubulad will NOT be held at Ridgewood’s Gottscheer Hall

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?)

We’re big fans of community arts & music venue The Knockdown Center

Celebrate warmer temperatures this weekend by taking in all the glory that summer-to-fall’s lovely transition brings

Make sure you make your way out to Silent Barn next Wednesday because the creative house is hosting public meeting #8, and they will be talking about women in DIY

We reported a few weeks ago about the long-awaited return of Rubulad, a notorious Brooklyn underground party, in their enormous new space at the Knockdown Center

As a longtime Rubulad fans, we were beyond ecstatic when we received a press release about their upcoming Valentine’s Day Party, Love Unlimited! If you’re unfamiliar, Rubulad is one of Brooklyn’s best underground parties – so underground in fact that they don’t have any official web presence! Their events bring people of all walks to life and all ages (well, 21+) to get together and experience top-notch entertainment

NEW YEARS EVE! NEW YEARS EVE! I’d chant it from the Empire State Building if only they wouldn’t handcuff me and take me somewhere not as bright and sparkly

Enormous warehouse parties you will remember for the rest of your life
