Feast3: February

Seems to be a ~monthly series of assorted performance-art pieces. $12 for entry and on St. Marks so pretty accessible. Got no expectations here so if you're free from 1900-2100 and have a few bucks laying around, could make for an interesting night.

Price: $12

Location: St. Marks (East Village)

Brooklyn Wine Festival

The Lot Radio 3 year anniversary

The Lot Radio is taking over all 5 rooms of Brooklyn Bazaar with a rotating lineup on each (seriously there are a ton of names in the lineup). I don't know any of them, but I have to imagine most of them don't suck so probably going to be a good time. 1900-0500

Sunday (2019.02.10)

A group art show at The Living Gallery BK

I don't know any of the artists off the top of my head, but have been following The Living Gallery BK for awhile so think this will probably be pretty good. Show runs from 1900-2200 and I believe entry is free as they'll be making money off art sales.

Price: Free entry

Location: The Living Gallery BK (Bushwick)
