THIS WEEKEND: Le Petit Boudoir Grand Opening
Just over a month ago I was contacted by a very nice gentleman regarding a store he and his wife are opening on Franklin Street. His name is Mike and you might be interested to know he is the chap behind Mercat Negre on Grand Street. Naturally I had to get the 411 so I swung by. Things were a little rough— but it looked promising. As I left that day I asked Mike to give me a heads-up when they were closer to opening. This too has come to pass. In fact, I just got back from previewing what will be Le Petit Boudoir. I am pleased to report it is looking good!
Here’s what you can expect opening day (which is this upcoming Saturday!):
- Vintage clothing
- Sunglasses galore
- Handmade soaps and candles (I have been told they will be using produce from Greenpoint’s very own Rooftop Farms in some of these goodies!)
- jewelry and much, much more!
Check it out!

Closing on a Franklin Street related note, today I spoke with one of the owners of the restaurant slated to occupy 162 Franklin Street: Vamos Al Tequila. Not only was she nice enough to let me see their space…
but she assured me that enchiladas will be on their menu (which they hope to have finalized next week) and they plan to open in “10 days”. I can hardly wait!

A New York Shitty PSA: My Show At Creek & Cave
Last night, despite having a rather nasty (and I mean nasty) head cold, my show is up at Creek & Cave! I would like to take a moment to thank the Mister and Rose Sol, the curator for this space, for making this happen— and to make the following announcement: there will not be an opening reception on May 2 as I have previously indicated.
Long story made short, there was a scheduling conflict with a performance they will be having that evening so I decided to have a closing reception instead. When the date for this is set (as of the writing of this post it looks like it will be in June) I will announce it here. In the meantime if you have the time and/or inclination, swing by and check it out!

Opening Date: May 2, 2010 3:30 – 5:30 p.m. It’s up!

Now if you don’t mind I am going back to getting some much needed rest.

P.S.: Since there is room for one more piece (making a total of seven 16″ x 20″ images and three 30″ x 40″ images) I will select something and add it next week!
