Well folks, the big day (for me, anyway) is almost upon us. Tomorrow, December 10, I will be hanging my show of photography, Brookland, at t.b.d. I picked up the prints this evening and I have to confess I was very, very pleased! But back to the purpose of this post:
A number of people have inquired if there will be a reception for my show: the answer is yes. In a manner of speaking. Here’s the deal:
– I have been running myself ragged lately. This is mostly due to the fact I have been trying to balance my life and this web site with the demands of this show. I’m tired!
– For this reason tomorrow, starting at 7:30 p.m., I will be having a “soft opening”. I’ll just be hanging out, talking to people who swing by, etc.
– In January I will have a more proper closing reception. I will post the details about this at a later date.
Those of you who looking for free food and the like will probably want to attend the latter most. Otherwise, I hope to see you all tomorrow at t.b.d.! I have put a lot of work into this show and can’t wait to see the final product!

THIS WEEKEND: Handmade Holiday Craft Fair at 3rd Ward
Filed under: 11206, 11211, Bushwick, Bushwick Brooklyn, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn
Soon enough Christmas will be upon us. For this reason those of you who are behind on your gift shopping (like me) should pencil in 3rd Ward’s annual Handmade Holiday Craft Fair this upcoming Saturday, December 12th! Among the items promised at this event are:
- two floors teeming with crafts and culinary treats
- live music
- screenings of cult holiday classics
- free coffee
- delicious drinks, tasty treats and free workshops
It should also be noted that the first 300 guests will receive a free tote bag designed by Fernanda Cohen filled with goodies! Which brings me to this closing piece of advice: GO EARLY. This event gets packed very, very quickly. I speak from experience when I write this.

Hey there Heather! I know you don’t normally post much in the way of music videos but I thought I’d pass this onto you since a) I shot it and b) a lot of it was shot in Greenpoint/Williamsburg/Bushwick in front of a lot of the graffiti murals out there. At the very least, I hope you enjoy it!

Duly enjoyed, Matt. Thanks for sharing! Those of you who want to hear more of Will Pilot’s music can do so via their Myspace page.
