Re: Huge fire in Red Hook

Our Park Slope / Windsor Terrace art show in that space (& the 3 other large shows) = gone. Thanks to all firemen & city officials doing their best to help. 100s of artists have great art in there- if any of them can be salvaged, I know that you folks will do what you can!

Tomorrow walk theme- WOMENS MARCH. Get up off ur butts & kick off the month active. Lots of people are asking what we can do against the tide of anti-democracy. Stand up. Get educated. Celebrate the wealth that we find in our community. All this tomorrow 11:30 ~ 1:15 along the infamous canal

A few tix still available for tomorrow’s 11:30 STREET / ART, Brooklyn walk. The theme is BLUE. We’ll start at the Gowanus Dredgers boathouse, and amble around for 1.5 hrs. I’ve planned stops to keep us from becoming ice blocks and sliding into the canal.

Give the gift of a walk to yourself and use code “25off!” & get 25% off tomorrow thru March on public walks listed (STREET page of my site). All walks are around Gowanus & highlight art in & about the streets. Routes & themes differ (Gift, Blue, Beatles, & Women’s March in that order thru March)

Another busy weekend kicking off early tonight! Anyone ever heard of Moths Stories? We’re hosting a mini (unofficial) one at Shapeshifter tonight. A rare chance to catch a handful of living artists spilling the beans about their art on the walls🫘

One of my soccer buddies, Raphael, runs this podcast. It’s great… esp. when he interviews creatives [these 3 have an opening tonight, Thursday, @ 340 E. 64th St… a nice Chashama gallery Uptown]. Here’s their chat: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...
