I am 100% devoted and true to the neighborhood love of my life Greenpoint, but there’s no harm in having a little crush on Fort Greene is there? I don’t see nothin’ wrong with a little nap in Fort Greene Park while belly rubbin’ from some deliciousness at Brooklyn Flea as long as I still return home each night, so I won’t feel bad spending my entire Saturday at the 3rd annual Fort Greene Festival.

Headlined by Mos Def (OK fine, another crush of mine), the day will feature FREE performances each day by other awesome acts like Paperdoll, Navegante and more. Food offerings from local favorites General Greene, Madiba, Buka and Rustik Tavern will be there to fuel your day-long dance parties. The event will be hosted by Rosie Perez and Toure; check out the full line-up and information HERE.

She's been honing her thrifty ways since doing that silly thing people talk about when they ignore reason to follow their hearts and chose a career in the fulfilling but faltering music industry. She earns her beer money as a publicist and writer, and spends her spare time cooking, biking, and trying to decide if she's ready to get a cat.
