From The New York Shitty Inbox: Vendors Wanted

As many of you know, every Friday this summer the Greenpoint Reformed Church is hosting the Greenpoint Flea Market Bazaar: an indoor/outdoor market where crafters, cooks, junk mavens and thriftsters can sell their wares. Will, last night I was contacteds by the people organizing this market. They they have special offer for vendors and they want me to pass it along. Here it is. Greenpoint Flea writes:

Just wanted to let you know we are running a special discount for all vendors $25-$45 for all spaces in the market the next two Fridays 6/25 and 7/2.

Anyone interested in taking renting a table for these or any other upcoming Greenpoint Flea Market event should contact Greenpoint Flea via email at: greenpointflea (at) gmail (dot) com.

Thanks!

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool, Part II: Schadenfreude

This image of last weekend’s carbecque comes courtesy of Alex Gaidouk. While I am on the subject, I have noticed that a great many people purport that this particular automobile has a proclivity for spontaneously combusting— and it runs upwards $350,000 a pop. What kind of person would outlay that kind of money for such a item? I’d really like to know.

NEXT WEEK: Dan Witz Book Signing & Party

Here’s the deal: as a general rule I do not post events until the week of said event. In this case I am making an exception. Why, you ask? Because I am damned excited, that’s why! Next Wednesday, June 30th, from 7:00 – 10:00 p.m. Spoonbill and Sugartown Books will be hosting a book signing party for our very own Dan Witz (whose handiwork can be seen at left). Refreshments are promised as is the opportunity to purchase a copy of his new book, In Plain View: 30 Years of Art Work Illegal or Otherwise; and have it signed by the man himself.

Check it out!

SATURDAY: JELL-O SPRINGS ETERNAL

Another year, another Jell-o competition. What I—- and many other fellow Greenpointers, I suspect— want to know is if our very own Jello Mistress Goddess and keeper of Edie the Hamster, Victoria, will represent the Garden Spot? I suppose we’ll have to wait and find out!

JELL-O Springs Eternal
