Williamsburg Weekender

It's the weekend, the glorious, glorious weekend! Join me, o' brothers and sisters of Williamsburg, as we commence our cosmic journey of funmic energy!

Tonight at Nurture Art is the opening of Patterns of Growth, a group show described thusly:

Spanning three generations of female artists, Patterns Of Growth attempts to trace a path of influence that began with pioneering artists like Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, and Alma Thomas, and continues in the work of contemporary artists.

Oh now is the Wintour of our discontent! Yes, it's Williamsburg Fashion Weekend. Also, puns! But seriously, you don't have to be a Voguette to attend, you just need $8. Check out the new line from Mandate of Heaven and a joint show from Treehouse Brooklyn's Sirius* and Sodafine's Erin Weckerle. Plus bands like the Tall Firs and DJs will perform after the fashion shows. All the details on Friday and Saturday's shows here.

Finally, tonight you can venture to the almost-but-not-quite-closed Sound Fix Cafe to see The Forms play a free show at 8pm.
