A Day at the Races: The Met Museum
Actually, no. Not unless ‘œthe races’ is a cheeky synonym for one of the most crowded art museums in the universe. (It isn’t.) Nevertheless, I spent a few hours yesterday at The Met. I hadn’t really been to a proper cultural institution since I moved back to NYC and I

Dumbo Underwater Visualizes Brooklyn’s Sunken Future
It’s a safe – and apparently scientific – assumption that, if the earth’s water levels one day decided to rise, New York won’t be spared. We’re okay with that, and mostly because we’re not really planning on living until 2100 anyway. Sorry, kids. But as much as we’d like to forget

Market SF – Cool Art and Cheap Booze
Market SF combines two of my favorite things: alcohol and art! When don’t they go together?! Happily, each and every Saturday the two combine to help local artists and designers find patrons, and vice versa. Even if you can’t afford the art it’s a great opportunity to learn you some

Get Warmed Up with P.S 1 this Summer
After spouting off on the wonders of Brooklyn Yard and how sweet all the parties would be there this summer, I feel bad for getting your (and my) hopes up since the venue shuttered less than a week after I wrote about them, goddamnit. But don’t fret, the Sunday Best

Crest Hardware Nails it with Annual Art Show
There are many reasons why Crest Hardware is my favorite hardware store in existence. They have a parrot that makes awesome squawking noises, and will eat your finger off given the chance. It’s family owned, and the employees are super helpful. It’s the kind of place where the sales clerks
