As time would have it, Bushwick Open Studios 2015 is NEXT weekend and there will be more than enough to see as our neighborhood transforms into the ultimate art mecca of NYC

Seize the moment this weekend- the first official full weekend of summer!

This weekend's offerings not only include some incredible performance and video, but there are also some stellar exhibitions that are closing and not to be missed! As my sister likes to tell me on days that I'd rather sleep-in than venture out into the world, "carpe the shit out of your diem!"
