Hi all. Between some viruses running through our house and a snow day this week, we’re a bit behind! Instead of crashing today’s usual rundown of the next week’s activities, we’re going to send out the full newsletter on Friday. We included today’s events (from last week’s newsletter) below so you can still make plans after work tonight.
Thanks for understanding,
Nicole

💌Valentine’s Week At Parklife & Friends! “Parklife is celebrating Valentine’s Day over 7 nights! Enjoy a night out with dinner at Parklife plus a fun activity at littlefield, Royal Palms Shuffleboard Club BK and Kick Axe Throwing BK! Select your preferred night and see what activity awaits!

💌🏛📖Brooklyn Reads: Ten Bridges I’ve Burnt With Brontez Purnell: “Celebrate Valentine’s Day and the release of Ten Bridges I’ve Burnt with author Brontez Purnell, the “bard of the underloved and overlooked.” In his first collection of verse, Purnell reflects on his peripatetic life marked by misadventures and sexcapades.” (7:00 PM, Brooklyn Museum, $20)
🕺’Remembering' Premiere @ BAM: “This multimedia production explores the historical accounts of the Middle Passage, Slavery, and Emancipation. Inspired by “The MAAFA Suite” and the teachings of Bishop Rev. Dr. Johnny Ray Youngblood, REMEMBERING is American history told by African Voices, lacing Contemporary and African Dance with audio-visual elements, including spoken word, music, and African drumming.” (7:30 PM, BAM, $40)
🍿'Shouting At The Screen' @ Nitehawk: “Back in the days before live-tweeting, the only way to express your thoughts while watching a movie was to yell them out loud to the delight of your friends, and the disgust of some old people a few rows in front of you. Comedian Wyatt Cenac (HBO’s Problem Areas, Bob’s Burgers) and musician Donwill (Tanya Morgan, Adulting with Michelle Buteau & Jordan Carlos) invite you to join them as they recreate the kind of ridiculous, loud mouthed magic that is generally found in movie theaters owned by a guy named Magic.” (9:15 PM, Nitehawk)
Stay healthy everyone!
