Williamsburg 2nd Fridays Gallery Crawl

It’s not all crowded subway trains in my neighborhood

What do you know? I moved to Williamsburg just in time for the 2nd Fridays gallery crawl. It will be great to see a bit more of my new neighborhood, an a few galleries I like (Slate Gallery for example) are having events and some I’m not familiar with (Graphite with a new show by Tae Hwang) come recommended.

Full list of events and spaces if you are so inclined:

  • Tae Hwang In Between at Graphite
  • “Exploring 100 Years of Figurative Art: Part II ” Including the Realists” at Figureworks
  • Sarah H. Paulson Your point will change… at Alice Chilton Gallery
  • Chino Amobi Pregnancy Pact at Like The Spice
  • Artist Talk: Barbara Thomas The Floating Color Series at Slate Gallery

And then there’s also:

Gitana Rosa (Can’t forget the show name: Hung: Checking out the Contemporary Male)
19 Hope St. #7 (b/w Roebling and Havemeyer)


Black and White Gallery (less than a block from my new apartment)
483 Driggs Avenue (between N 10th and N 9th)

Hogar Collection (recommended to me)
362 Grand Street (the corner of Marcy Ave)

Pierogi ( <3 )
177 N. 9th St. Brooklyn

A Room of My Own

I signed the lease on an apartment last night! I plan to move in October 1. After 9 months of going from place to place, whether St. Maarten or Mexico or different sublets in New York City, I’m tired. I want a place of my own. And so it is with great relief that I am hiring movers to help me get my stuff out of storage and put it in this white box in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for a year.

But the question is: what to do with all those big white walls?
